gdb: ensure SIGINT is set to SIG_DFL during initialisation
In order for our SIGINT handling to work correctly with Python we require that SIGINT be set to SIG_DFL during Python's initialisation. Currently this is the case, but, in a later commit I plan to delay the initialisation of Python until after the point where GDB's own SIGINT handler has been installed. The consequence of this is that our SIGINT handling would become broken. In this commit I propose adding an RAII class that will ensure SIGINT is set to SIG_DFL during the call to each extension languages finish_initialization method. At this point this change should have not effect. gdb/ChangeLog: * extension.c (struct scoped_default_signal): New struct. (scoped_default_sigint): New typedef. (finish_ext_lang_initialization): Make use of scoped_default_sigint.
