check the life time of subprocesses before freeing vis

Currently there is now way for long running subprocesses like language
servers to gracefully shutdown.
When reacting to the QUIT event and invalidating the process handle
the subprocess will never be killed and destroyed because the
subprocesses are only checked during vis_run.

Collecting and killing subprocesses with invalid handles after the
QUIT event allows graceful shutdown.
