gRPC applications should call this before calling fork().

There should be no active gRPC function calls between calling grpc_prefork() and grpc_postfork_parent()/grpc_postfork_child().

Typical use: grpc_prefork(); int pid = fork(); if (pid) { grpc_postfork_parent(); // Parent process.. } else { grpc_postfork_child(); // Child process... }
