Don't block SIGABRT, SIGBUS, SIGFPE, SIGILL nor SIGSEGV since
blocking them can hide real bugs in our code or 3rd-party
libraries and executables.

We'll also leave SIGXCPU and SIGXFSZ unblocked since users
may've setup RLIMIT_CPU and RLIMIT_FSIZE, respectively.

kevent EVFILT_SIGNAL behaves differently than Linux signalfd
in that we can't rely on it to handle signals that were sent
before the existence of the kevent filter.  Thus, [5/10] opens
a window before entering the event.

This difference between OSes was noticed due to lei tests
quickly starting read-only daemons and terminating them before
signal handlers were setup properly from the lack of
SCM_RIGHTS support on *BSDs lacking Inline::C.

Nevertheless [9/10] improves test dependency management to
ensure read-only daemons don't start all when SCM_RIGHTS
support is unavailable.

Patch [10/10] was originally far more aggressive in that it
kept all signals blocked across execve, but that's probably
unrealistic for real-world scenarios

7/10 to add TTOU/TTIN support to xap_helper was actually
the first developed in this series.

Lots more brewing in the portability department...

Eric Wong (10):
  ds: don't block important signals we don't use
  t/sigfd: test EVFILT_SIGNAL vs signalfd differences
  t/sigfd: better checks related to SIGWINCH
  update devel/syscall-list to devel/sysdefs-list
  daemon: workaround pre-EVFILT_SIGNAL signals
  watch: ensure children can use signal handlers
  xap_helper: support SIGTTIN+SIGTTOU worker adjustments
  xap_helper.h: include signal.h for sig* functions
  tests: add `+SCM_RIGHTS' as a require_mods target
  test_common: start_script: set default signals
