At present the codes uses sigaction() to install signal handler with
a flag SA_RESETHAND. Such usage can be covered by the signal() API
that is a simplified interface to the general sigaction() facility.

Update to use signal() to install the signal handler, as it is
avaiable on Windows which we are going to support.

We should keep the sigaction() version for !WIN32, it has notoriously less
issues, more modern etc. signal() only on win32.

Although in this particular usage, I don't think that makes much
difference...

Yes, as I mentioned in the commit message, the codes uses sigaction()
to install signal handler with a flag SA_RESETHAND, and such can be
replaced by the signal() API.

It is still a supported API in POSIX so we should be safe to use it to
simplify the code paths. Unless you are strongly against this?

Bin
