/* timeout - Start a command, and kill it if the specified timeout expires
We try to behave like a shell starting a single (foreground) job,
and will kill the job if we receive the alarm signal we setup.
The exit status of the job is returned, or one of these errors:
EXIT_TIMEDOUT 124 job timed out
EXIT_CANCELED 125 internal error
EXIT_CANNOT_INVOKE 126 error executing job
EXIT_ENOENT 127 couldn't find job to exec
Caveats:
If user specifies the KILL (9) signal is to be sent on timeout,
the monitor is killed and so exits with 128+9 rather than 124.
If you start a command in the background, which reads from the tty
and so is immediately sent SIGTTIN to stop, then the timeout
process will ignore this so it can timeout the command as expected.
This can be seen with `timeout 10 dd&` for example.
However if one brings this group to the foreground with the `fg`
command before the timer expires, the command will remain
in the sTop state as the shell doesn't send a SIGCONT
because the timeout process (group leader) is already running.
To get the command running again one can Ctrl-Z, and do fg again.
Note one can Ctrl-C the whole job when in this state.
I think this could be fixed but I'm not sure the extra
complication is justified for this scenario.
