commit ef8ce3077f55d5a105b39f605b877da50ab80aa7

    Cygwin: fork: fix child process permissions, take 2
    
    VirtualQueryEx, called by fixup_mmaps_after_fork, requires
    PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION permissions per MSDN.  However, testing
    shows that PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION is sufficient when
    running the same code on Windows 8.1 or Windows 10.  Fix the code
    to give the forked child always PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION perms
    on Windows Vista/7 and respective server releases.
    
    Revert now unneeded patch to check_token_membership as well.
