Bug 336193 - P2: Use a second SIGTERM in killPid() to ensure parent process is 
killed.

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/232486/#review237940

Harnesses built on top of Marionette client as test runner will use
SIGKILL to force killing the browser process. It is only used if the
normal shutdown as requested through the application itself via
`Services.startup.quit` did not work.

Title:
  MASTER Firefox crashes on instant X server shutdown

Status in Mozilla Firefox:
  In Progress
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in firefox-3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Firefox crashes when X server is forcefully torn down (e.g. by
  pressing ctrl-alt-backspace) and a crash report gets generated on next
  login.

  (Original Report:
  I've reproduced it once on my machine with the following steps. With, oh, 
about 5 tabs open, I just pressed ctrl-alt-backspace, logged back in when the X 
server restarted, and FF crashed with a bug report when Gnome tried to restore 
the session.

  It's not terribly important, I don't think anyone does this very often, but 
maybe it'll be helpful.
