job_reap(): fix use of unitialised pointer

Browse source 
This solves another intermittent crash that happened upon
processing SIGWINCH in the emacs editor. See also: 7ff6b73b

I found this bug while testing ksh 93u+m on OpenBSD. Due to its
pervasive security hardening, this system crashes a program
reliably where others crash it intermittently, which is invaluable.

src/cmd/ksh93/sh/jobs.c: job_reap():
- The pw pointer is not ever given a value if the loop breaks on
  line 318-319, but it is used unconditionally on lines 464-470,
  Initialise the pointer to null on function entry and do not call
  job_list() and job_unpost() if the pointer is still null.
