This allows using a sequence of SHM segments that starts with a number
larger than zero, which can be useful to avoid conflicts with time
sources that are not started by timemaster, e.g. gpsd using segments
number 0 and 1.

Instead of trying to support all options of the server and refclock
directives in both NTP implementations, add an "ntp_options" option
which specifies a string that is added directly to the lines in the
chronyd/ntpd configuration file.

Instead of killing the whole process group, which may contain other
processes than timemaster and its children (e.g. when it is started from
a shell script), save the PIDs and kill the processes individually.

In ntp-4.2.8p1 the segment access was made configurable with the
refclock mode option. Set the mode to 1 to create all SHM segments
with owner-only access.
timemaster is a program that uses ptp4l and phc2sys in combination with
chronyd or ntpd to synchronize the system clock to NTP and PTP time
sources. The PTP time is provided by phc2sys and ptp4l via SHM reference
clocks to chronyd/ntpd, which can compare all time sources and use the
best sources to synchronize the system clock.
