test_is_alive_after_fork is failing on some old Linux kernels, but
passing on all newer ones.  Since virtually anything can go wrong
with locks when mixing threads with fork, replace the most likely
cause with a redundant simple data member.

When test.support was converted to a package, it started silently
skipping the tests which needed to download support data to run.

This change refactors the affected code, and also tidies up
test.support.findfile to remove the unused *here* parameter, document
the *subdir* parameter and rename the *filename* parameter to avoid
shadowing the file builtin and be consistent with the documentation.

The unexpected skips were noticed and reported by Zachary Ware
