The new option '-qemu-children' makes it so that on `execve` the child
process will be launch by the same `qemu` executable that is currently
running along with its current commandline arguments.

The motivation for the change is to make it so that plugins running
through `qemu` can continue to run on children.  Why not just
`binfmt`?: Plugins can be desirable regardless of system/architecture
emulation, and can sometimes be useful for elf files that can run
natively. Enabling `binfmt` for all natively runnable elf files may
not be desirable.
