* Turn a process into a daemon.
*
* This function converts a process into a daemon in an orderly manner. It first forks a child process,
* then the parent exits. The child continues on to become a session leader, reset the file mode creation
* mask, and changes working directories to the one specified.
*
* @param working_dir Pointer to a character string containing the desired working directory. Providing
* a value of NULL will cause the function to leave the program in the current working directory.
*
* @retval OPAL_SUCCESS Indicates that the conversion was successful
* @retval OPAL_ERROR Indicates that the conversion was not successful - a fork could not be completed.
