* The `O_CLOEXEC` flag shall be cleared from the resulting file
* descriptor; see dup3() to preserve it.
*
* One use case for duplicating file descriptors is to be able to
* reassign an open()'d file or pipe() to the stdio of an executed
* subprocess. On Windows, in order for this to work, the subprocess
* needs to be a Cosmopolitan program that has socket() linked.
*
* Only small programs should duplicate sockets. That's because this
* implementation uses DuplicateHandle() on Windows, which Microsoft
* says might cause its resources to leak internally. Thus it likely
* isn't a good idea to design a server that does it a lot and lives
* a long time, without contributing a patch to this implementation.

* @param fd remains open afterwards
* @return some arbitrary new number for fd
* @raise EPERM if pledge() is in play without stdio
