perf test: Don't signal all processes on system when interrupting tests

Browse Source 
This signal handler loops over all tests on ctrl-C, but it's active
while the test list is being constructed. process.pid is 0, then -1,
then finally set to the child pid on fork. If the Ctrl-C is received
during this point a kill(-1, SIGINT) can be sent which affects all
processes.

Make sure the child has forked first before forwarding the signal. This
can be reproduced with ctrl-C immediately after launching perf test
which terminates the ssh connection.
