I don't know if we've experienced problems with stopping traffic_monitor in
the past, but it certainly has the potential to have the same problem. The
only real difference between those two files was the CATALINA_OPTS variable
values (and also license header?)

I have an updated script for traffic_monitor here:

https://github.com/guzzijason/incubator-trafficcontrol/commit/7631f81ea754bbe0f63ac77120df5686c2310dd6

I can PR that if folks feel there is a need.
