Fix a crash when 'kill %%' and 'kill %+' are run (#35)

Ksh was trying to use the 'pw' variable as a valid pointer even when it was NULL. This is fixed by doing the error check for 'pw' before doing anything else in 'job_kill'. This bugfix is from Red Hat: https://git.centos.org/rpms/ksh/blob/44e0a643a93492b1f6beebbf6ffcfd453d9ab8f2/f/SOURCES/ksh-20130214-fixkill.patch Fixes #34
