[PATCH v4 04/11] Add RAII class for blocking gdb signals

[Tom Tromey <tom at tromey dot com>]

This adds configury support and an RAII class that can be used to
temporarily block signals that are used by gdb.  (This class is not
used in this patch, but it split out for easier review.)

The idea of this patch is that these signals should only be delivered
to the main thread.  So, when creating a background thread, they are
temporarily blocked; the blocked state is inherited by the new thread.
