bson_oid_init returns same oid after fork()

    • Minor Change

      An application that calls fork() in a loop and then the forked processes call bson_oid_init() will end up with the same oid if called within the same second because the implementation of bson_oid_init() uses a cached per-process random even if BSON_CONTEXT_DISABLE_PID_CACHE is set.
