Int 21 Fn 55 - DOS 2+ Internal - Create Child Psp [D]
AH = 55h
DX = segment at which to create new PSP
SI = (DOS 3+) value to place in memory size field at DX:[0002h]
Return: CF clear if successful
Notes: creates a "child" PSP rather than making an exact copy of the current
PSP; the new PSP's parent pointer is set to the current PSP and the
reference count for each inherited file is incremented
(DOS 2+) sets current PSP to DX
(DOS 3+) marks "no inherit" file handles as closed in child PSP
