Fix the dns bug: children weren't dying

We were telling a child to die by closing the parent's file descriptor
to him. But newer children were inheriting the open file descriptor from
the parent, and since they weren't closing them, the socket never closed,
so the child never read eof, so he never knew to exit.

As a side effect to this bug, we were probably failing to properly close
connections to remote hosts, ORs, and OPs, after a dns child was born.

I'm surprised Tor worked at all.
