Force the initscript to remove the PID file when calling "stop" section.
If suricata crashes during startup, the PID file still remains and the service cannot be started anymore until the file has been deleted.
Now when calling "stop" or "restart" the PID file will be deleted and the service can be used again.
Fixes #12067.
