[PATCH i-g-t v5] runner/executor: Detect when child process is killed by a signal

Make igt-runner aware about tests being killed by signals. Before this
patch, manually killing a test process would result in igt-runner silently
marking the test as incomplete.

Now igt-runner aborts the run verbosely. As an example the following was
extracted from results.json:
 This test caused an abort condition: Test terminated by a signal Killed (-9).

 v5: do not use sigdescr_np() as it seems to be a fairly new lib function that does
     not compile on older Ubuntu
 v4: improve abort code path to not interfere with igt-runner timeouts
 v3: do not interfere with igt-runner killing tests due to timeout and diskspace
 v2: fix race condition
