Reference to nonexistent node `Threads and Signal Handling'.

When building the documentation for i386-gnu, makeinfo gives me:

signal.texi:2568: Cross reference to nonexistent node `Threads and
Signal Handling'.

This node appears to exist only in linuxthreads, so I suspect the
reference should just be removed.

        * manual/signal.texi (Process Signal Mask): Remove reference to
        Threads and Signal Handling.  That node only exists in
        linuxthreads.texi which is not used on all platforms.
