PATCH 2/2 fstests: btrfs/081, fix killing of reader loop subshell

From: Filipe Manana <[email protected]>

The test creates a subshell that keeps running the 'cat' command against a test file in an infinite loop, and after it kills the subshell it unmounts the filesystem, after which point any 'cat' subcommand that runs after or at that time will fail resulting in an unexpected golden output:

  $ ./check btrfs/081
  btrfs/081 3s ... - output mismatch (see /home/fdmanana/git/hub/xfstests/results//btrfs/081.out.bad)

  Failed 1 of 1 tests

Fix that by adding a proper trap to the reader loop function so that the subshell waits for executed 'cat' commands when it receives SIGTERM.
