Fix kqueue support under debugger on macOS.
Thomas Munro <tmunro@postgresql.org>
Fix kqueue support under debugger on macOS. While running under a debugger, macOS's getppid() can return the debugger's PID. That could cause a backend to exit because it falsely believed that the postmaster had died, since commit 815c2f09. Continue to use getppid() as a fast postmaster check after adding the postmaster's PID to a kqueue, to close a PID-reuse race, but double check that it actually exited by trying to read the pipe. The new check isn't reached in the common case.
