run-command: don't spam trace2_child_exit()

In rare cases[1], wait_or_whine() cannot determine a child process's
status (and will return -1 in this case). This can cause Git to issue
trace2 child_exit events despite the fact that the child may still be
running. In pathological cases, we've seen > 80 million exit events in
our trace logs for a single child process.

Fix this by only issuing trace2 events in finish_command_in_signal() if
we get a value other than -1 from wait_or_whine(). This can lead to
missing child_exit events in such a case, but that is preferable to
duplicating events on a scale that threatens to fill the user's
filesystem with invalid trace logs.

[1]: This can happen when:

* waitpid() returns -1 and errno != EINTR
* waitpid() returns an invalid PID
* the status set by waitpid() has neither the WIFEXITED() nor
  WIFSIGNALED() flags
