Teach test_server to report severe errors to common_test

If a severe error occurs in test_server (e.g. failing to write to
log files), test_server would terminate without commont_test knowing
about it. Since ct_run can now return an exit code, it is important
that common_test is aware of severe problem so that it can indicate
that an error has occurred.
