improve session closing behavior

the new session close behavior is again the old

- first send SIGHUP and wait one second if that works
- then hard kill

before we tried to send an EOF character
this needed workaround to not kill "non shell" programs
unexpected and doesn't work e.g. if

- you have some not finished command input in your shell
- on e.g. FreeBSD in general

When closing the session with some background process still running:
- using Ctrl+D (which sends EOF) will leave that background process running
  (which is the expected behaviour with e.g. BASH:
  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2009-03/msg00091.html)
- using e.g. the close button on the titlebar will close the session and kill
any background processes

You can also use 'somecommand & disown', if you want to ensure background
processes
aren't killed when you close a konsole window.
