Instead of installing an early debug signal handler, simply block the
SIGUSR1 signal at start-up and unblock it when the debugger is ready.

Both approaches are functionally equivalent but blocking the signal
accomplishes it in fewer lines of code.

R=@sam-github? It's not necessary to SIG_DFL SIGCHLD because
libuv installs its own handler when it spawns a process, but it does
seem like a good idea to explicitly install default handlers.

LGTM, and thanks. I agree that setting all the sighandlers to default is a good idea, SIG_IGN is inheritable across exec.

For the record, I noticed this problem with a bug in some of my code that was masking out SIGCHLD until ppoll(), but I forgot that after forking I'd have to clear the procmask before execing node as a child process. That caused uv to never received SIGCHLD, and so to never notice child process exit.

src: do platform-specific initialization earlier
5756f92 
Execute the per-platform initialization logic as early as possible,
for two reasons:

1. It opens the way for an upcoming commit to simplify early SIGUSR1
   handling.

2. It should make life easier for embedders because io.js no longer
   mucks around with the file descriptor limit or signal disposition
   of the process.

src: set default signal dispositions at start-up
dd47a8c 
Signal dispositions are inherited by child processes.  Restore ours to
sane defaults in case our parent process changed it, to prevent quirky
behavior when the parent does something silly like ignoring SIGSEGV.

build: don't squash signal handlers with --shared
0f0f3d3 
An application using node built as a shared library may legitimately
implement its own signal handling routines. Current behaviour is
to squash all signal handlers on node startup. This change will
stop that behaviour when node is built as a shared library.
