[patch] option -k of ifplugd did not work

Hello,

today I reconized that ifplugd -k does stop the running ifplugd without 
calling ifdown. Sending SIGTERM to the ifplugd did the job, ifdown was 
called before ifplugd stopped.
The solution is simple: ifplugd -k sent the wrong signal. the clean up 
stage was simply omitted!

Attached is the small patch solving the problem.

By the way. A few weeks ago I send another patch concerning ifdown for 
interfaces using a mapped configuration. Until now I haven't got any 
reaction from anybody. Is this not the correct way to have patches 
reviewed or put into the busybox code? Is there anything wrong in the 
way I provide the patches?

Regards,
Matthias Loy
