Revert "uitest: make child soffice process die when parent dies"
This reverts commit d35840a2111beafe018851314a624e268e3cde6a, now that 43aef04d77aafb9d055957642e62b559231f3711 "Reliably wait for soffice to terminate" makes sure that no soffice-related processes are left behind by UITests. Using PR_SET_PDEATHSIG had the following drawbacks: * It defeats debugging if a runaway process is forcefully killed by the test framework. (And there are already higher-layer mechanisms in place for the reliable termination of runaway tinderbox builds, see the commit message of 43aef04d77aafb9d055957642e62b559231f3711 mentioned above.) * It is brittle in that it can terminate soffice-related processes too early, as the signal is sent as soon as the parent's thread that spawned the child (and not the parent process as a whole) terminates. * It is Linux-only.
