It seems that in ao_oss.c init() and reset() are a little bit out of sync with
respect to the way of open()-ing dsp device. Probably this functionality
should be put in a separate function called from the both places.

Meanwile, here's a tiny patch for setting FD_CLOEXEC flag on dsp fd. This
should help with a problem observed on FreeBSD at least, when xscreensaver
ends up owning dsp device if -stop_xscreensaver option is used and a user
seeked through or paused a playback.
