automount daemon unmounts the autofs root in /cvmfs upon receiving SIGTERM. This makes it impossible to reconnect the daemon to the mount later, so all consumer Pods will loose their mounts CVMFS, without the possibility of restoring them (unless these Pods are restarted too). The implication is that the nodeplugin is just being restarted, and will be needed again. SIGKILL is handled differently in automount, as this forces the daemon to skip the cleanup at exit, leaving the autofs mount behind and making it possible to reconnect to it later. We make a use of this, and unless the admin doesn't explicitly ask for cleanup with AUTOFS_TRY_CLEAN_AT_EXIT env var, no cleanup is done. Cherry-pick f1d7ee2 (cvmfs-contrib#122)
