welcome: Use Linux PR_SET_PDEATHSIG to ensure dbus-daemon dies when we do

It's convenient for debugging to "kill -9 $(pidof gdm-binary)", but
presently because gdm runs bare "dbus-launch" which daemonizes,
it won't terminate when the parent gdm welcome session dies.

Other approaches here are to use "dbus-daemon --no-fork --print-address"
directly as a child, and kill it when we get SIGTERM:

But this is an easy fix, even if it only works on Linux.
