In the future, property service may run in its own thread or process,
which means that PropertyChildReap() needs to be refactored to not run
as part of the init signal handler.
The new method spawns a new thread that handles the queue of paths
that require restorecon. It then communicates back to property service
via android::base::SetProperty(). Property service distinguishes the
thread from other callers of SetProperty() by checking the pid in the
credentials for the socket connection, thus avoiding dependencies on
the rest of init.
The new method also drops the genericness, since restorecon is the
only function that we should ever need to run asynchronously
Test: async restorecon works, including with queued requests

Previously, if init received too many SIGCHLD signals, then the write to
signal_write_fd could fail with EAGAIN. The handler tried to log the
EAGAIN error, and init deadlocked if the interrupted init process had
already acquired a logging-related lock.

One of the major aspects of treble is the compartmentalization of system
and vendor components, however init leaves a huge gap here, as vendor
init scripts run in the same context as system init scripts and thus can
access and modify the same properties, files, etc as the system can.
This change is meant to close that gap. It forks a separate 'subcontext'
init that runs in a different SELinux context with permissions that match
what vendors should have access to. Commands get sent over a socket to
this 'subcontext' init that then runs them in this SELinux context and
returns the result.
Note that not all commands run in the subcontext; some commands such as
those dealing with services only make sense in the context of the main
init process.

Primarily, this fixes a bug where a forked child of property service
uses exit() instead of _exit, which has the unintended consequences of
running the global destructors of init proper, which leads to
unintended cleanup.
Secondly, this replaces the remaining calls of exit() that really
should be LOG(FATAL).

This allows Android to cleanly shutdown when running in a PID namespace
in a way that does not rely on adbd running. This is useful to allow
Android to be running in a container and its lifetime managed by an
OCI-compliant tool.

Test: `kill -TERM 1` as root is correctly dropped.
Test: `kill -TERM 1` from the init PID namespace causes init to cleanly shutdown.
