There are a number of races, and failure conditions which can lead to a pid of 0 being returned from flatpak_instance_get_child_pid. This would lead to a whole bunch of things getting killed. We will skip the instance in those cases now, and retry a few times. We also notice when the instance just goes away by itself now. This should make killing more robust, and especially not SIGKILL pid 0.
