usr: osh: Introduce '&' for background tasksexpt
Previously, when running programs from the shell. The execution must
finish before anything else can be done. This commit allows users to add
an ampersand ('&') after the command in order to run it in the
background. This is an example of its usage:
--
@ beep at 400 Hz for 9000ms (to annoy people for fun).
@ We will be running it in the background and do a 'kstat'
@ to see that the number of tasks have increased.
beep 400 9000 &
kstat
..
