Summary: -D option: "do not daemonize", -F option: "do not fork"

Initial Comment:
This patch is to allow to run OpenSER in "no-daemon" mode. We need to do this to run OpenSER under daemontools. There is a -D option already that means "Do not fork into daemon mode". But the problem with this option is that it really means more then just "Do not fork into daemon mode". It really means do not fork at all, i.e. do not create any child OpenSER processes. The patch below adds a variable no_daemon in main.c, makes -D option only change the no_daemon variable and makes the variable no_daemon only control whether OpenSER daemonizes itself or not. Another option, option -F, is added as the replacement of the old -D option. The -F option sets both no_daemon and dont_fork  variables, so that it means exactly the same as -D option meant before.
