> bpo-16500: Don't use string constants for os.register_at_fork() behavior (#1834)

Since there was a disagreement, FYI I also prefer this API. Just the
API, I didn't look at the implementation in detail.

Anyway, it's nice to see this very old issue finally fixed! It was
opened 5 years ago!

I also prefer to have a builtin registered callback in the random
module instead of having a custom callback in the multiprocessing
module to re-seed the RNG after fork!
