https://golang.org/cl/10173 intrduced msigsave, ensureSigM and
_SigUnblock but didn't enable the new signal save/restore mechanism for
SIG{HUP,INT,QUIT,ABRT,TERM} on DragonFly BSD, FreeBSD and OpenBSD.
At present, it looks like they have the implementation. This change
enables the new mechanism on DragonFly BSD, FreeBSD and OpenBSD the same
as Darwin, NetBSD.

Ian proposed an improved way of handling signals masks in Go, motivated
by a problem where the Android java runtime expects certain signals to
be blocked for all JVM threads. Discussion here
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/golang-dev/_TSCkQHJt6g
Ian's text is used in the following:
A Go program always needs to have the synchronous signals enabled.
These are the signals for which _SigPanic is set in sigtable, namely
SIGSEGV, SIGBUS, SIGFPE.
A Go program that uses the os/signal package, and calls signal.Notify,
needs to have at least one thread which is not blocking that signal,
but it doesn't matter much which one.
Unix programs do not change signal mask across execve. They inherit
signal masks across fork. The shell uses this fact to some extent;
for example, the job control signals (SIGTTIN, SIGTTOU, SIGTSTP) are
blocked for commands run due to backquote quoting or $().
Our current position on signal masks was not thought out. We wandered
into step by step, e.g., http://golang.org/cl/7323067 .
This CL does the following:
Introduce a new platform hook, msigsave, that saves the signal mask of
the current thread to m.sigsave.
Call msigsave from needm and newm.
In minit grab set up the signal mask from m.sigsave and unblock the
essential synchronous signals, and SIGILL, SIGTRAP, SIGPROF, SIGSTKFLT
(for systems that have it).
In unminit, restore the signal mask from m.sigsave.
The first time that os/signal.Notify is called, start a new thread whose
only purpose is to update its signal mask to make sure signals for
signal.Notify are unblocked on at least one thread.
The effect on Go programs will be that if they are invoked with some
non-synchronous signals blocked, those signals will normally be
ignored. Previously, those signals would mostly be ignored. A change
in behaviour will occur for programs started with any of these signals
blocked, if they receive the signal: SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGQUIT, SIGABRT,
SIGTERM. Previously those signals would always cause a crash (unless
using the os/signal package); with this change, they will be ignored
if the program is started with the signal blocked (and does not use
the os/signal package).
./all.bash completes successfully on linux/amd64.
OpenBSD is missing the implementation.

These signals are used by glibc to broadcast setuid/setgid to all
threads and to send pthread cancellations. Unlike other signals, the
Go runtime does not intercept these because they must invoke the libc
handlers (see issues #3871 and #6997). However, because 1) these
signals may be issued asynchronously by a thread running C code to
another thread running Go code and 2) glibc does not set SA_ONSTACK
for its handlers, glibc's signal handler may be run on a Go stack.
Signal frames range from 1.5K on amd64 to many kilobytes on ppc64, so
this may overflow the Go stack and corrupt heap (or other stack) data.
Fix this by ensuring that these signal handlers have the SA_ONSTACK
flag (but not otherwise taking over the handler).
This has been a problem since Go 1.1, but it's likely that people
haven't encountered it because it only affects setuid/setgid and
pthread_cancel.
Fixes#9600.

Some systems, like Ubuntu, pass --build-id when linking. The
effect is to put a note in the output file. This is not
useful when generating an object file with the -r option, as
it eventually causes multiple build ID notes in the final
executable, all but one of which are for tiny portions of the
file and are therefore useless.
Disable that by passing an explicit --build-id=none when
linking with -r on systems that might do this.

NPTL uses SIGRTMIN (signal 32) to effect thread cancellation.
Go's runtime replaces NPTL's signal handler with its own, and
ends up aborting if a C library that ends up calling
pthread_cancel is used.
This patch prevents runtime from replacing NPTL's handler.
Fixes#6997.
