Subject: [PATCH] manager: Only invoke a single sigchld per unit within a
 cleanup cycle

By default, each iteration of manager_dispatch_sigchld() results in a unit level
sigchld event being invoked. For scope units, this results in a scope_sigchld_event()
which can seemingly stall for workloads that have a large number of PIDs within the
scope. The stall exhibits itself as a SIG_0 being initiated for each u->pids entry
as a result of pid_is_unwaited().

v2:
This patch resolves this condition by only paying to cost of a sigchld in the underlying
scope unit once per sigchld iteration. A new "sigchldgen" member resides within the
Unit struct. The Manager is incremented via the sd event loop, accessed via
sd_event_get_iteration, and the Unit member is set to the same value as the manager each
time that a sigchld event is invoked. If the Manager iteration value and Unit member
match, the sigchld event is not invoked for that iteration.

Resolves: #1342173
