This change introduces a new procedure GNAT.Sockets.Set_Close_On_Exec, allowing
users to indicate that a given socket should not be inherited by
spawned processes (on platforms where this is supported).

Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk

2013-04-23  Thomas Quinot  <quinot@adacore.com>

	* g-socket.adb, g-socket.ads (Set_Close_On_Exec): New subprogram.
