[WebDriver][Tools] Ensure W3C executor multiprocessing uses the fork start
method for python 3.14 compatibility
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317863
Reviewed by Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez.
Python 3.14 changed multiprocessing default start method from fork to
forkserver, where a server process is in charge of forking the new
processes out of it.
This method breaks the current WebDriver W3C executor, which assumes
that the spawned code will inherit the state of the parent, like
envvars, etc.
This commit reverts back to use the original 'fork' method locally for
these workers.
Note that we still need the changes from bug317850 with the required
bumps for full 3.14 compatibility.
