Bug 336193 handle SIGTERM in SignalPipeWatcher then in the main thread to quit

I think this approach will work well, thanks.

SIGTERM will have no effect if Firefox gets stuck during shutdown, but I guess
that's reasonable because SIGTERM is intended to effect normal shutdown.  If
Firefox shutdown is broken in such a way that it gets stuck, then other
signals are available to terminate the process.  The alternative of
reinstating the previous handler after the first SIGTERM would lead to the
disadvantage that two SIGTERMs would terminate the app before shutdown
completes even if shutdown would otherwise complete as expected.

Please use static instead of the anonymous namespace.

Gecko capitalizes the first letter of C++ method names (distinct from variable
names).

NS_DispatchToMainThread(task.forget()); to save unnecessary ref count
toggle.

Please also remove the trailing whitespace in this patch.

Some changes will be needed to merge with changes for bug 1372405.
NS_NewRunnableFunction() may be useful.
