test_repr_lock leaves a dangling process #155732

Description

@serhiy-storchaka

Bug report

test_repr_lock starts the process P2, terminates it and never joins it, so it is still in multiprocessing.active_children() when the test ends:

$ ./python -m test --fail-env-changed test.test_multiprocessing_fork.test_processes -m test.test_multiprocessing_fork.test_processes.WithProcessesTestLock.test_repr_lock
Warning -- Dangling processes: {<Process name='P2' pid=3761884 parent=3761868 stopped exitcode=-SIGTERM>}
Result: ENV CHANGED

The same for the forkserver and spawn variants.

Running the whole file passes: the process is reaped before the environment is checked.
