restore SIGCHLD sighandler to default before spawning a program

From sigaction(2):
A child created via fork(2) inherits a copy of its parent's signal dispositions.
During an execve(2), the dispositions of handled signals are reset to the default;
the dispositions of ignored signals are left unchanged.

This refused to start directly some programs from configuring in config.h:

static Key keys[] = {
	MODKEY,                       XK_o,      spawn,          {.v = cmd } },
};

Some reported programs that didn't start were: mpv, anki, dmenu_extended.

Reported by pfx.
Initial patch suggestion by Storkman.
