This PR implements a fix for `multiprocessing.Process` objects; the error occurs when Processes are created using either `fork` or `forkserver` as the `start_method`.
In these instances, the `MainThread` of the newly created `Process` object retains all attributes from its parent's `MainThread` object, including the `native_id` attribute. The resulting behavior is such that the new process' `MainThread` captures an incorrect/outdated `native_id` (the parent's instead of its own).
This change forces the Process object to update its `native_id` attribute during the bootstrap process.

In some conditions the standard streams will be None or closed in the child process (for example if using "pythonw" instead of "python" on Windows). Avoid failing with a non-0 exit code in those conditions.
Report and initial patch by poxthegreat.
multiprocessing.Process.is_alive() now removes the process from the
_children set if the process completed.
The change prevents leaking "dangling" processes.
* bpo-30794: added kill() method to multiprocessing.Process
* Added entries to documentation and NEWS
* Refactored test_terminate and test_kill
* Fix SIGTERM and SIGKILL being used on Windows for the tests
* Added "versionadded" marker to the documentation
* Fix trailing whitespace in doc
* Clear potential ref cycle between Process and Process target
Besides Process.join() not being called, this was an indirect cause of bpo-30775.
The threading module already does this.
* Add issue reference
* Fix bpo-30596: Add close() method to multiprocessing.Process
* Raise ValueError if close() is called before the Process is finished running
* Add docs
* Add NEWS blurb
* multiprocessing: open file with closefd=False to avoid ResourceWarning
* _test_multiprocessing: open file with O_EXCL to detect bugs in tests (if a
previous test forgot to remove TESTFN)
* test_sys_exit(): remove TESTFN after each loop iteration

multiprocessing: Process._bootstrap() keeps a reference to the old process to
delay its finalization until after _run_after_forkers() as been executed. This
change should fix a crash on Mac OS X Tiger when a lock is released after a
fork.
