Harden `test_cancellation` for fork-spawner backends

Deats,
- `pytestmark`: enrich `skipon_spawn_backend('subint')` reason with
  conc-anal doc refs + GH#379 link, add `reap_subactors_per_test`,
  `track_orphaned_uds_per_test`,
  `detect_runaway_subactors_per_test` fixtures
- `test_nested_multierrors`: parametrize over `depth` `{1, 3}`, add
  MTF `xfail(strict=False)` with detailed race-window comment
  explaining the BEG shape mismatch, wrap body in
  `fail_after_w_trace` with per-backend timeout budget, bump
  `@tractor_test(timeout=10)`, drop old multiprocessing depth
  special-casing
- `test_multierror_fast_nursery`: wrap in
  `fail_after_w_trace(30.0)`, accept `TooSlowError` in
  `pytest.raises`, surface explicit `pytest.fail` on hang
- `test_cancel_while_childs_child_in_sync_sleep`: swap
  `spawn_backend` param for `is_forking_spawner`, widen
  `fail_after` delay for fork-based spawners
- `test_remote_error`, `test_multierror`,
  `test_cancel_infinite_streamer`, `test_some_cancels_all`: add
  `set_fork_aware_capture` fixture param
- Drop commented-out per-test `skipon_spawn_backend` blocks (now
  covered by module-level `pytestmark`)

#
# The scenario in detail:
#
# T=0 spawn spawner_0 + spawner_1 in parallel
# T=t1 spawner_0's child errors →
# RemoteActorError reaches root nursery
# T=t1+ε root nursery starts cancelling
# spawner_1's portal-wait
# T=t2 spawner_1's child errors → tries to send
# RemoteActorError back
#
# if t2 < t1+ε: BEG = [RAE, RAE] ← clean (xpass)
# if t2 > t1+ε: BEG = [RAE, Cancelled] ← race tripped (xfail)
#
# i.e. the assertion below (`isinstance(_, RemoteActorError)`)
# fails iff cancel-delivery beats the other tree's natural
# error-propagation. Depth amplifies `t2-t1` variance
# (longer per-tree paths = more skew); under MTF the
# fork-spawn jitter + UDS-contention widens both `t1` and
# `t2` further.
#
# With `strict=False` the clean-cascade cases (most
# depth=1 runs, rare depth=3 runs) report as `xpassed`
# while the race-tripped cases report as `xfailed` —
# neither flakes `--lf`. When MTF cancel-cascade
# eventually speeds up enough to close the race even at
# depth=3, BOTH variants will reliably `xpass` and
# pytest will yell — our signal to drop the marker. See
