keep open file descriptors to the paths that zygote itself needs open #25

Zygote needs the static and template paths from the initial version of zygote that was launched to still be there. If you're using a deployment system which cleans up old versions of code, then it's possible that they might be cleaned up. Now it'll keep an open file descriptor to those directories to give a signal to such a deployment system to not be so aggressive with the cleaning.
