n_tty: Fix unsafe driver-side signals
An ldisc reference is insufficient guarantee the foreground process
group is not in the process of being signalled from a hangup.
1) Reads of tty->pgrp must be locked with ctrl_lock
2) The group pid must be referenced for the duration of signalling.
Because the driver-side is not process-context, a pid reference
must be acquired.
