test-child-process-bad-stdio.js contains a race condition between a timeout in the test process and a timeout in the spawned child process. This commit addresses the race condition by having the child process wait indefinitely to be killed.

I was unable to reproduce the race condition locally using the test as it was originally written (I ran a 1,000 iteration stress test). I was able to reproduce it by tweaking the timeout duration in the parent process, which leads me to believe this was due to some slowness in the CI.
