tests/*server.pl: flush output before executing subprocess

Also avoid shell processes staying around by using exec.
This is necessary to avoid output data being buffering
inside the process chain of Perl, Bash/Shell and our
test server binaries. On non-Windows systems the exec
will also make the subprocess replace the intermediate
shell, but on Windows it will at least bind the processes
together since there is no real fork or exec available.
