[RFC PATCH v1 2/8] nolibc/sys: Implement `signal(2)` function

From: Ammar Faizi
Date: Wed Dec 21 2022 - 22:52:30 EST


From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@xxxxxxxxxxx>

signal() function is the simpler version of sigaction(). Unlike
sigaction(), which fully controls the `struct sigaction`, the caller
only cares about the sa_handler when calling the signal() function.

signal() internally calls sigaction(). This implementation is
currently only available on the x86-64 arch.
