Bug description:  proc_open() closes stdin on fork() failure

Description:
------------
The block spawning the child process for both Netware and UNIX-like OS
contains this block in failure case:

    if (child < 0) {
        /* failed to fork() */
        /* clean up all the descriptors */
        for (i = 0; i < ndesc; i++) {
            close(descriptors[i].childend);
            close(descriptors[i].parentend);
        }

        ...
    }

parentend is filled only for pipes, for 'file'
handles it's not filled, and left '0' as initialized
by memset() in proc_open.c line 537.

So, if proc_open() was called with descriptorspec
using 'file' and the fork() call fails, this results
in closing descriptor 0.

Quick fix is to only close parentend if it's non-zero, such as:

Reproduce code:
---------------
It's necessary to setup process limit via ulimit so that running the php
script gets last allowed slot:

> echo test > tst
> ulimit -p `pgrep -u "\`id -u\`" | wc -l`
> php script.php < tst

script.php:
<?php

$p = proc_open("echo hello", array(0 => array('file', '/dev/null', 'r'), 1
=>
array('pipe', 'r')), $pipes1);

echo file_get_contents("php://stdin")."\n";


Expected result:
----------------
PHP Warning:  proc_open(): fork failed - Resource temporarily unavailable
in /usr/home/dolecek/tmp/proc3.php on line 4
test

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Warning:  proc_open(): fork failed - Resource temporarily unavailable
in /usr/home/dolecek/tmp/proc3.php on line 4
