Cool.

I note that "killall" already has about half this infrastructure.  And
you're not using any of toybox's option parsing code:

  http://landley.net/toybox/code.html#lib_args

Also, kill needs to be able to integrate with the shell's job support,
so you can kill a background job.  I'm not sure how to handle that, the
relevant shell bits haven't been written yet...

That said, I can merge this, factor out the common killall and option
parsing bits, and then worry about shell integration later.

Thanks,

Rob
