Fix broken / backwards logic in the blaze launcher when trying to kill a running server (because startup flags changed, different Blaze version, etc.). Currently, we do a SIGTERM then fallback to a SIGKILL. Our logic to check if the server was still up after the fallback was backwards, so in some cases we would connect to the old server even though we just sent it a SIGKILL. Not really ideal. Note that this only occurred if the SIGTERM failed to kill the Blaze process within 10s, so this failure mode happened rarely. Also: Check for the expected errno from the kill(), and exit with an "internal error" exit code instead of "1" if we are unable to kill the old server. -- MOS_MIGRATED_REVID=105999230

Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:
A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.
An emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.
Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
