Sypnopsis: Improve uperf server exit logic for CRR.
Description: On a high scale CRR test, we could see the client fails to connect to the server on the second or later sample runs. The root cause is the server side may have two uperf processes LISTEN on the control port. One process is the "good" one, and the other is actually the left-over from the previous run.
This could happen because the main uperf server process spawns a child, but the current uperf-server-stop only kills the main process. CRR notoriously has issue with not being able to shutdown all connection cleanly. In this case, the child process remains alive and LISTENs to the port, and not die with the parent - On the next run, we end up having two processes listen on the control port.
Fix: Also find and kill the child process on uperf-server-stop.
Test: CRR profile and all other profiles are perfectly happy with the new code
