ctdb-daemon: Check PID in ctdb_remove_pidfile(), not unreliable flag
If something unexpectedly uses fork() then an exiting child will
remove the PID file while the main daemon is still running. The real
test is whether the current process has the PID of the main CTDB
daemon, which is the process that calls setsid().
This could be done using getpgrp() instead. At the moment the
eventscript handler harmlessly calls setpgid() - harmless because the
atexit() handlers are cleared upon exec(). However, it is possible
that process groups will be used more in future so it is probably
better to rely on the session ID.
Thanks to Sumit Bose <sbose@redhat.com> for the idea.
