Kill engines that do not respond to 'quit' in time

If an engine process is still alive 50ms after the adapter received a
'quit' command, it will now be killed. This is done by the GUI thread
(which now also causes the adapter to exit), because the engine thread
might be tied up in listening to an engine that has no intention to
respond to 'stop'. (Which would be a necessary condition for the engine
thread to relay the queued 'quit' command.)
