Sergey Bugaev a979b72747 hurd: Implement SHM_ANON
This adds a special SHM_ANON value that can be passed into shm_open ()
in place of a name. When called in this way, shm_open () will create a
new anonymous shared memory file. The file will be created in the same
way that other shared memory files are created (i.e., under /dev/shm/),
except that it is not given a name and therefore cannot be reached from
the file system, nor by other calls to shm_open (). This is accomplished
by utilizing O_TMPFILE.

This is intended to be compatible with FreeBSD's API of the same name.
