-o posix: allow invoked programs to inherit FDs > 2

If there are file descriptors > 2 opened with 'exec' or 'redirect',
ksh93 has always closed them when invoking another pogram. This is
contrary to POSIX which states:
    Utilities other than the special built-ins […] shall be invoked
    in a separate environment that consists of the following. The
    initial value of these objects shall be the same as that for
    the parent shell, except as noted below.
    * Open files inherited on invocation of the shell, open files
      controlled by the exec special built-in plus any
      modifications, and additions specified by any redirections to
      the utility
    * […]

src/cmd/ksh93/sh/io.c: sh_redirect():
- When flag==2, do not close FDs > 2 if POSIX mode is active.

src/cmd/ksh93/tests/io.sh:
- Regress-test inheriting FD 7 with and without POSIX mode.

src/cmd/ksh93/sh.1:
- Update.
