Clear fd list and suspend I/O threads on process-fork w/kill-other-threads
Previously, ##sys#kill-other-threads wouldn't clear the ##sys#fd-list,
leading to errors when unrecognized file descriptors were encountered
during scheduling. Additionally, it would set slots in random heap
locations near ##sys#fd-list (potentially leading to heap corruption)
since it incorrectly tried to suspend a list rather than a thread; the
fd list has a different format than the timeout-list, and its `cdr` is a
list of threads that must be each suspended individually.
