fix subprocess restart issues

- Fix event listener memory leak by removing all listeners before restart
- Properly cleanup old process with SIGTERM before forking new one
- Fix Stop() to actually kill process (was using kill(0) which only checks existence)
- Store callbacks in instance to avoid re-attaching listeners on restart
- Add isShuttingDown flag to prevent restart when stopping intentionally
- Add 100ms delay before restart to ensure clean process termination
- Check if process is killed before sending messages
- Update Reset() to store new settings for future restarts
