 * kill built-in. Shell substitutes job ids with process groups first.
 *
 * This brings some complications:
 *
 * + we can't use xfunc here
 * + we can't use applet_name
 * + we can't use bb_show_usage
 * (Above doesn't apply for killall[5] cases)
 *
 * kill %n gets translated into kill ' -<process group>' by shell (note space!)
 * This is needed to avoid collision with kill -9 ... syntax
