Print debug stacktraces from within a forked worker
Fixes CHEF-4357: http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-4357 Rescue exceptions from within a forker worker and feed them to `Chef::Application.debug_stacktrace()`, then exit non-zero. This fixes an issue where Chef would spew ruby stacktraces with forking enabled (stacktraces should only be printed to console with `-l debug`). Additionally fixes an issue where a generic exception was passed to `debug_stacktrace`, leaving a stacktrace.out file with no useful information. In addition to the above fixes, includes the following improvements: * Update the forked worker's argv0 to clearly indicate it's the worker process, and include ppid and run start time. * When reaping the worker process, include more useful information when the worker exited non-successfully, such as exit code or signal that killed the process. In particular, OOM kill (e.g., when running resource intensive code compile, etc. on small machine) should be a little more obvious.
