Add safe versions of spawn using bare functions

Currently they just wrap the unsafe versions. Will need to be rewritten
eventually.

+// enough to suite our needs (#1034, probably others yet to be discovered), so
+// we're going to copy the bootstrap data into a unique pointer, cast it to an
+// unsafe pointer then wrap up the bare function and the unsafe pointer in a
+// shared closure to spawn.
