  fatal-signal: Log backtrace when no monitor daemon.

Currently the backtrace logging is only available when monitor
daemon is running.  This patch enables backtrace logging when
no monitor daemon exists.  At signal handling context, it detects
whether monitor daemon exists.  If not, write directly the backtrace
to the vlog fd.  Note that using VLOG_* macro doesn't work due to
it's buffer I/O, so this patch directly issue write() syscall to
the file descriptor.

For some system we stop using monitor daemon and use systemd to
monitor ovs-vswitchd, thus need this patch. Example of
ovs-vswitchd.log (note that there is no timestamp printed):
