seccomp: kill process instead of thread for unknown actions
Asynchronous termination of a thread outside of the userspace thread library's knowledge is an unsafe operation that leaves the process in an inconsistent, corrupt, and possibly unrecoverable state. In order to make new actions that may be added in the future safe on kernels not aware of them, change the default action from SECCOMP_RET_KILL_THREAD to SECCOMP_RET_KILL_PROCESS.
