Joachim Wiberg 0b182c063e test: Extend depserv test with per-service reload, fix slay race
Verify that 'initctl reload foo' properly triggers dependent
services by checking that bar gets a new PID after the reload.
Also change the second test case from service/foo/running to
service/foo/ready which is the actual condition set by pidfile.so.

Fix a race in slay where the target process could exit between
the PID lookup and kill -9, causing spurious test failures in
tight kill loops (e.g., start-kill-service.sh).
