arch-riscv,sim: Support clone syscall in RISC-V

(1) This patch sets a correct order of clone syscall's arguments for
RISC-V. Linux kernel 4.15 uses CLONE_BACKWARDS flag by default for
RISC-V. The flag in the Linux kernel defines the list of clone syscall's
arguments in the following order:

  clone_flags   (flags)
  newsp         (newStack)
  parent_tidptr (ptidPtr)
  tls           (tlsPtr)
  child_tidptr  (ctidPtr)

(2) This patch copies a parent thread's register values to its child
thread in clone syscall.
