Auto merge of #97802 - Enselic:add-no_ignore_sigkill-feature, r=joshtriplett

Support `#[unix_sigpipe = "inherit|sig_dfl"]` on `fn main()` to prevent ignoring `SIGPIPE`

When enabled, programs don't have to explicitly handle `ErrorKind::BrokenPipe` any longer. Currently, the program

```rust
fn main() { loop { println!("hello world"); } }
```

will print an error if used with a short-lived pipe, e.g.

    % ./main | head -n 1
    hello world
    thread 'main' panicked at 'failed printing to stdout: Broken pipe (os error 32)', library/std/src/io/stdio.rs:1016:9
    note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

by enabling `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` like this

```rust
#![feature(unix_sigpipe)]
#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]
fn main() { loop { println!("hello world"); } }
```

there is no error, because `SIGPIPE` will not be ignored and thus the program will be killed appropriately:

    % ./main | head -n 1
    hello world

The current libstd behaviour of ignoring `SIGPIPE` before `fn main()` can be explicitly requested by using `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_ign"]`.

With `#[unix_sigpipe = "inherit"]`, no change at all is made to `SIGPIPE`, which typically means the behaviour will be the same as `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]`.
