Rich Trott 6e6913b5db test: fix test-child-process-send-returns-boolean
test-child-process-send-returns-boolean was unreliable in CI and
locally.

* use 'SIGKILL' for more reliable process termination
* replace callback with assert.ifError()
* increase interval in fixture from 500ms to 9999ms. It's only purpose
  is to keep the process from exiting.
