Task #4642

Update producers across platform to unregister prefixes instead of shutting down face
100%
Description
Per #4636, to ensure that the last transmitted Data is not lost, producers need to unregister prefixes to cause Face::processEvents() to return, instead of calling Face::shutdown(). These changes need to be made to producers across the entire platform.

It appears that the following producers already utilize the unregisterPrefix() mechanism to halt their faces (or potentially some other mechanism that doesn't utilize shutdown() right after sending a Data packet):
- ndnpingserver
- ndnputchunks
- ndn-pib
- name-based-access-control producers
- repo-ng
- ChronoShare
- ndncert
- ndn-autoreg
- ndn-autoconfig-server
Meanwhile, the follow producers utilize the shutdown() mechanism and need to modified to utilize it (if they're still in use):
- ndnpoke
- ndn-traffic-server
- ndn-atmos cxx-producer

I removed ndnputchunks from the list of producers needing to be modified, since it only calls Face::shutdown() in response to a prefix registration error.

Patches for ndnpoke and ndn-traffic-server have been pushed to Gerrit for review.

Note that I will not be changing instances where Face::shutdown() is called in response to a SIGINT, as exiting immediately seems likely to be the intended behavior in response to that signal.

Susmit told me not to worry about cxx-producer in ndn-atmos, as ndn-atmos is unable to compile against current versions of ndn-cxx (because it still uses C++11).

Reopening. Eric reports that the fix for ndn-traffic-server is not working as expected.

I discovered that this was caused by the asio SIGTERM handler not being cleared properly. A change has been pushed to Gerrit: https://gerrit.named-data.net/#/c/ndn-traffic-generator/+/4832/

Correction: Actually it's the handler for SIGINT and SIGTERM.
