transport-helper, connect: use clean_on_exit to reap children on abnormal exit
When a long-running service (e.g., a source indexer) runs as PID 1
inside a container and repeatedly spawns git, git may in turn spawn
child processes such as git-remote-https or ssh. If git exits abnormally
(e.g., via exit(128) on a transport error), the normal cleanup paths
(disconnect_helper, finish_connect) are bypassed, and these children are
never waited on. The children are reparented to PID 1, which does not
reap them, so they accumulate as zombies over time.
Set clean_on_exit and wait_after_clean on child_process structs in both
transport-helper.c and connect.c so that the existing run-command
cleanup infrastructure handles reaping on any exit path. This avoids
rolling custom atexit handlers that call finish_command(), which could
deadlock if the child is blocked waiting for the parent to close a pipe.
The clean_on_exit mechanism sends SIGTERM first, then waits, ensuring
the child terminates promptly. It also handles signal-based exits, not
just atexit.
