xenv: wait for the subprocess to end after a KeyboardInterrupt

A KeyboardInterrupt is trapped by `xenv` and ignored (an error message is printed) so that it can wait for the subprocess to complete.

Fixes GAUDI-1101.

warning: enumeral mismatch in conditional expression:
'StatusCode::<anonymous enum>' vs 'IConversionSvc::Status'

fix GAUDI-1099

std::stol is more aggressive than ::strtol when given bad input. This results in Boole failing in the LHCb nightly builds. See GAUDI-1099.

make IStateful baseclass of IAlgTool, IAlgorithm and IService

IAlgTool, IAlgorithm and IService all declare the following pure
virtual functions:
      configure,initialize,start,stop,finalize,terminate,reinitialize
      restart and FSMState
which, presumable not by coincidence, also happens to be the
functions which IStateful declares.

This commit removes those declarations from IAlgTool, IAlgorithm
and IService, and instead makes them inherit from IStateful

Provide (and use) C++11 smart pointer 'look and feel' for SmartIF

The aim of this branch is to confine, for everything that inherits from IInterface,
the calls to addRef(), release() and queryInterface() to the SmartIF implementation.
Exceptions are a few places where interfaces (currently) return bare pointers (instead of
SmartIF...) and where one thus has to addRef() explicitly to avoid returning a dangling
pointer. This can be avoided by changing the relevant interface to return a SmartIF
instead of a bare pointer.

In addition, make SmartIF 'look and feel' like a smart pointer.

- use explict bool conversion instead of .isValid()
- add SmartIF::as<IFace>(), to return a SmartIF<IFace> to an alternate
    interface -- which (together with move) encourages the use of auto
- add ISvcLocator::as<IFace>(), to return a SmartIF<IFace> to the current ISvcLocator.
- add ServiceManager::service<IFace>() which return SmartIF<IFace> which encourages
    the use of auto

And add a few other C++11 modernizations (eg. prefer STL over raw loop)
