Martin Schwenke ba1356d7ba ctdb-scripts: ctdbd_wrapper should never remove the PID file
kill_ctdbd() kills the daemon and then removes the PID file.  This is
racy because a new daemon could write a new PID file in between the
kill and the removal.  Reversing these steps would be an improvement.

However, none of the places where kill_ctdbd() is called is a safe
place to remove the PID file.  There is always a chance that a new
daemon could start, write a new PID file and then kill_ctdbd() could
remove the new PID file.

ctdbd is able to overwrite a stale PID file by checking to see if it
is locked.

Therefore, entirely drop removal of the PID file from ctdbd_wrapper.
