+ Add option to make SIGTERM trigger the OS default
+ behaviour instead of doing a gracefull shutdown. To
+ activate this bahviour the environment variable
+ ERL_ZZ_SIGTERM_KILL should be set to "true". This option
+ only works in OTP 19 as OTP 20 will have a different way
+ to deal with SIGTERM.</p>

+ Fixed memory segment cache used for multiblock carriers.
+ Huge (> 2GB) memory segments could cause a VM crash.
+ Creation of such huge memory segments used for multiblock
+ carriers is however very uncommon.</p>

+ erroneously caused <c>SIGTERM</c> to be ignored by the VM

+ Invoking <c>init:stop/0</c> via the SIGTERM signal, in a
+ non-SMP BEAM, could cause BEAM to terminate with fatal
+ error. This has now been fixed and the BEAM will
+ terminate normally when SIGTERM is received.</p>
