Child processes don't always reach _exit(); if they die from a signal, then any messages should still be accurate. Most users either expect a 0 status (thankfully, if status==0, then WIFEXITED(status) is true and WEXITSTATUS(status)==0 for all known platforms) or were filtering on WIFEXITED before printing a status, but a few were missing this check. Additionally, nwfilter_ebiptables_driver was making an assumption that works on Linux (where WEXITSTATUS shifts and WTERMSIG just masks) but fails on other platforms (where WEXITSTATUS just masks and WTERMSIG shifts).

v2: in daemon/remote.c, don't fail to log a minimal error on OOM.
