Correctly stop the subordinate Emacs daemon

This patch starts Emacs as a foreground daemon (so it can accurately be
killed) and terminates it by sending a signal (because
'server-force-delete' stops the local server, not the named server).

* exwm.el (exwm--server-timeout): The time to politely wait for the
subordinate server to exit before killing it.
(exwm--server-stop): Send SIGTERM to the subordinate process instead of
using 'server-force-delete'.
(exwm--server-eval-at): Prevent Emacs from forking so we can manage it
as a subprocess.
