system.3: Document additional return values

The man page did not include return values 126 (for no permission to
execute command), or values 128+n when command is terminated by
signal n.
this is not system(), this is the shell that system() happens to run.
i'm not against covering this in the man page, but it needs to be very
clear that the behavior is entirely shell specific.
