libglusterfs: handle failure properly in gf_system()
- Child must be terminated if execve(2) fails, otherwise it will deadlock parent - Status, as of given by waitpid(2), is aggregated data, should not be returned as is. In fact, there is not much point in threading up the exitvalue: callers usually return gf_system result as is, and according to glusterfs conventions, they should return -1 on failure. Therefore now we check only for success/fail, and return 0/-1.
