test-skeleton: Kill any child process's offspring

This makes sure any subprocesses created by the program being tested get
killed as well if their parent times out.  Otherwise if they are really
stuck, they may remain there running forever after the test case and
then the whole test suite has completed, until killed by hand.

	* test-skeleton.c (signal_handler): Kill the whole process group
	before killing the child individually.
	(main): Report any failure on `setpgid'.
