[PATCH v2] os: added the -upstart option for Upstart's signaling method.

This is very similar to the RunFromSmartParent option, except we do not
send the signal to our parent process, but our own process instead; also
the signal is SIGSTOP, not SIGUSR1.
Upstart will detect that our process has stopped, and interprets this as
"process ready" (to accept clients), send us SIGCONT, and move our job
from the SPAWNED to RUNNING status.
