Please backport upstream sudo changeset 10917:50b988d0c97f "The fix for Bug #722 contained a typo/thinko that resulted in the" to xenial, yakkety, and zesty versions of sudo.

This will fix a regression documented by this upstream bug report: https://bugzilla.sudo.ws/show_bug.cgi?id=784

sudo 1.8.15 changeset 10229:153f016db8f1 "When the command sudo is running is killed by a signal, sudo will" introduced a regression where the exit status is always 0 when a command is killed by a signal other than SIGINT. https://www.sudo.ws/repos/sudo/rev/153f016db8f1

This will be fixed in sudo 1.8.20 changeset 10917:50b988d0c97f "The fix for Bug #722 contained a typo/thinko that resulted in the". https://www.sudo.ws/repos/sudo/rev/50b988d0c97f

trusty sudo is based off sudo 1.8.9 and is not affected. xenial sudo based off sudo 1.8.16, yaketty sudo based off sudo 1.8.16, and zesty sudo based off 1.8.19 need the fix.
