[PATCH 2/2] tun: Kill the tunnel script's process group

When invoked with --script-tun, openconnect starts the tunnel script
via "/bin/sh -c 'SCRIPT'", then sends SIGHUP to the shell's PID when
shutting down. However, non-interactive shells are not guaranteed to
send SIGHUP to any running jobs [1]; indeed, the observed behavior on
Linux is that only the shell process receives SIGHUP, and the tunnel
script continues running after openconnect exits.
A quick fix is to set the child's pgid == pid, then send SIGHUP to the
entire process group when we want to shut down.

Note on portability:
I was able to find Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, and OSX man pages for
setpgid() which is in POSIX.1. I am "hoping" this means we don't need
a compat function, but I haven't verified anything other than Linux.
