When done with crash-dumping, we need to terminate the application. Calling

tgkill() is not necessarily possible, as a sandbox might block this call.
This changelist tries different approaches depending on whether we received
a synchronous or an asynchronous signal. This fixes unittest failures and
also runs correctly in sandbox'd environments.

TEST=ran unittest, and opened about:crash in sandbox'd Chrome
