Because we should switch to unix.PidFDSendSignal in new kernels, it has been supported in go runtime. We don't need to add fall back to unix.Kill code here. Signed-off-by: lifubang <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Kir Kolyshkin <[email protected]>

This is in Go 1.23 (see golang/go#62654 for a high-level overview). |
The gist of the implementation is in https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/570036; pidfd will be used when the kernel has all needed support (and it is not blocked by e.g. selinux) -- this means Linux v5.4 or so. |

This way, given a recent Go and Linux version, pidfd_send_signal will be used under the hood. Keep unix.Signal and unix.SignalName for logging (it is way more readable than what os.Signal.String() provides). Signed-off-by: Kir Kolyshkin <[email protected]>

This carries the first commit from #4517, and adds another patch on top of it.
The sole reason is to use pidfd_send_signal under the hood, if that's available.
