Subject: [PATCH] redox-rt: refresh inherited filetable before rebuilding fd
 table

Backport of upstream relibc 580eab8b ('Refresh filetable data before
filetable creation'). FdTbl::from_binary_fd reconstructs an exec'd
process's fd table from the inherited filetable fd. A plain lseek(0) did
not force the backing scheme to re-materialize the current descriptor
set, so an exec'd child (e.g. a login shell) could read a STALE snapshot
and end up with a desynchronized fd -- observed as an interactive shell
whose pty-slave stdin (fd 0) returns nothing while writes to fd 1/2 work.
Issue a SYS_DUP2 'refresh' on the filetable fd before reading it.
