deb-systemd-invoke: don't assume `kill` is available

/usr/bin/kill is provided by procps, which is not a dependency, and
might not be installed. For example, recent Debian CI containers do not
include `procps`, and this revealed an implicit dependency in procps by
init-system-helpers.

Given Perl has a kill() function, we can just use that instead of
shelling out to /usr/bin/kill.

Closes: #1146795
