Terminate subprocesses of the app

Ulrik Mikaelsson requested to merge subprocess-killtree into master

If the app spawns new processes that don't automatically exit when the app gets killed (some processes might die due to broken pipes for example, but this change targets those that don't), then these are currently not being terminated when we abruptly kill the app. Instead they 'leak' and become children of the init process (but they're still running, and so can't be reaped.)
