/*
  Utility program that encapsulates process creation, monitoring
  and bulletproof process cleanup

  Usage:
    safe_process [options to safe_process] -- progname arg1 ... argn

  To safeguard mysqld you would invoke safe_process with a few options
  for safe_process itself followed by a double dash to indicate start
  of the command line for the program you really want to start

  $> safe_process --output=output.log -- mysqld --datadir=var/data1 ...

  This would redirect output to output.log and then start mysqld,
  once it has done that it will continue to monitor the child as well
  as the parent.

  The safe_process then checks the follwing things:
  1. Child exits, propagate the childs return code to the parent
     by exiting with the same return code as the child.

  2. Parent dies, immediately kill the child and exit, thus the
     parent does not need to properly cleanup any child, it is handled
     automatically.

  3. Signal's recieced by the process will trigger same action as 2)
