start-stop-daemon: remove unnecessary carve-out for pipe FD
1364e6631c7f266484981d88be43f9b039f76b6a exempted the write end of the
synchronization pipe from the close() loop in the child process, but
this is unnecessary, as the pipe is opened with O_CLOEXEC, and the child
process calls execvp() soon after the close() loop, with the intervening
code not needing the pipe. Indeed, the pipe only needs to remain open in
the child process until after the call to setsid(), which occurs well
before the close() loop. So, eliminate the needless carve-out from the
close() loop, in preparation for introducing closefrom().
