Subject: [PATCH] SIGPIPE ignored before any service starts, and in standalone
 services

3proxy ignored SIGPIPE only after readconfig(), which starts the
services: a client gone while written to in the meantime killed the
process (as auto's case saw on macOS). Standalone services never ignored
it. Sends pass no MSG_NOSIGNAL, so this is the only guard.
