[JENKINS-33665] Kill child jobs when parent is killed (Build Step)

When using the plugin as a build step (NOT post build step) we fell into a situation where we need to kill the parent but it didnt killed the child jobs, can we add this functionality in the plugin.

Also, is there a way we can get the list of child-jobs (subProjects) in Jenkins-Groovy.
