[tarantool-patches] [PATCH v3] Use SIGKILL to stop server replica

Used the signal option set to SIGKILL to stop server replica
routine to be able to stop the replica immediately to imitate
the replica crash and, then, wake up.
The current case happened when we wanted to set ERRINJ_WAL_DELAY
for a tarantool instance and then stop it. By default the
SIGTERM was used and was not sufficient there, because the
main thread stil waited for the stuck WAL thread after the
signal. In that case the replica finished reading the *.xlog
file, but master server didn't know about it and saved the
previous *.xlog file for replica for its restart. When the
signal was changed from default to 9 (SIGKILL) replica didn't
have a chance to read all data from *.xlog file due to it was
killed immediately. So after replica restart it removed the previous
*.xlog file after its reading.
The logic of the replication was tried to change, but met
the new issues, so the suggested fix at commit:
b5b4809cf2e6d48230eb9e4301eac188b080e0f4
was reverted at commit:
