sh: Reap any zombies before forking for a background command.
This prevents accumulating huge amounts of zombies if a script executes many background commands but no external commands or subshells. Note that zombies will not be reaped during long calculations (within the shell process) or read builtins, but those actions do not create more zombies. The terminated background commands will also still be remembered by the shell. PR: bin/55346
