Eric Freese df5fb858aa Destroy old pty even if it's no longer running (#249) ...

For unknown reasons, the pty will occasionally quit running. In these
cases, we still want to remove it so that a fresh one can be created. We
don't actually need this check because error messages from `zle` and
`zpty` are redirected to /dev/null.

One sure way to kill all currently running pty's is to run `exit` in a
subshell. Even without zsh-autosuggestions loaded, the following works:

    % zmodload zsh/zpty
    % zpty -b foo cat
    % zpty -b bar cat
    % zpty
    (31689) bar: cat
    (31666) foo: cat
    % $(exit)
    % zpty
    (finished) bar: cat
    (finished) foo: cat
