‘system*’ no longer changes SIGINT and SIGQUIT handlers.

Browse source 
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/70144>.

Fixes a bug whereby ‘system*’ would change the handler of SIGINT and
SIGQUIT to SIG_IGN in a racy fashion, possibly competing with calls to
‘sigaction’ in Scheme in another thread.

This is a followup to 527c257d6e, which
witch to ‘posix_spawn’, ensuring signals are properly dealt with when
creating child processes.

* libguile/posix.c (restore_sigaction, scm_dynwind_sigaction): Remove.
(scm_system_star): Remove sigaction dynwind around call to
‘piped_process’.
* NEWS: Update.
