Keep a Windows manager tied to the firewall that runs it

On Windows the console sends Ctrl+C to both processes. The firewall
exited at once with 0xC000013A, handing the prompt back while a .cmd
shim's cmd.exe still asked "Terminate batch job (Y/N)?". It now ignores
Ctrl+C and Ctrl+Break while the manager runs and exits with its code.

A killed firewall also left the manager and its children running. The
firewall now joins a kill-on-close job before spawning, so whatever is
left dies with it.

An argument with a line break, which Rust refuses to pass to a batch
file, now says so instead of "batch file arguments are invalid".
