Ulf Hermann 0bef62481b RemoteLinux: Allow killing processes by ID ...

Killing every process on the system that happens to have the same name
as the one we've started is error prone and dangerous. We might kill
processes we haven't started and other processes might rename
themselves at runtime so that we don't find them anymore.

The process ID is obtained by outputting it as very first thing on
stdout and then starting the process with "exec", so that it isn't
forked.
