Reworked the pts stuff for monitoring progress.

tty/pts monitoring of tao_youtube_query.sh is now compatible with
systems running busybox linux utils (at least on postmarketos/alpine)

Using 'ps -e' instead of 'ps -ax' and stripped all the ps options
incompatible with busybox ps. The code is a lot cleaner as a result and
the killing of the process appears to be more consistent.
