Use signal value `0` rather than `'SIGCONT'` as the latter appears to behave unexpectedly on Alpine 3.8. Fixes: nodejs#22308

I'm not convinced this is likely to be the cause unless the tests in question are also using SIGSTOP. process.kill is asynchronous and should only throw if the pid (which appears to be the intention for isAlive()) or signal is invalid.

Yeah, I'm kind of flinging this against the wall to see if it works. (And CI came back and it didn't work.)

I haven't read the context here, but I can confirm that 0 is the correct signal to use to check for process existence, and it is has specific support for this purpose on Windows:
