IMPALA-6889: Fix race around terminating processes

A process with empty cmdline can trip up the Process class in our test
code. When a process dies it becomes a zombie until it gets reaped by
its parent.

>From 'man proc':

/proc/[pid]/cmdline
  This read-only file holds the complete command line for the
  process, unless the process is a zombie.  In the latter case,
  there is nothing in this file: that is, a read on this file
  will return 0 characters.  The command-line arguments appear
  in this file as a set of strings separated by null bytes
  ('\0'), with a further null byte after the last string.

To fix this, we take a copy of the cmdline before passing it to the
Process ctor to prevent it from changing.

I couldn't come up with a test for this.
