unix::ExitStatusExt: Correct reference to _exit system call
As discussed here
#88300 (comment)
exit is (conventionally) a library function, with _exit being the
actual system call.
I have checked the other references and they say "if the process
terminated by calling `exti`". I think despite the slight
imprecision (strictly, it should read iff ... `_exit`), this is
clearer. Anyone who knows about the distinction between `exit` and
`_exit` will not be confused.
`_exit` is the correct traditional name for the system call, despite
Linux calling it `exit_group` or `exit`:
