No, cons_server_loop shouldn't ever return. I propose the change
mainly for aesthetic reasons. Formerly, the main functions epilogue
was identical to the console_exit function. I added the
daemon_pid_file_remove stuff to console_exit, breaking the
symmetry. By marking console_exit with noreturn, replacing the
epilogue with the return statement with console_exit should be fine
compiler-warning wise. Furthermore, if the code is ever changed so
that cons_server_loop does return, all cleanups will be performed.
