signal: requeuing undeliverable signals

Kyle Huey recently reported[1] that rr gets confused if SIGKILL prevents
ptrace_signal from delivering a signal, as the kernel setups up a signal
frame for a signal that rr did not have a chance to observe with ptrace.

In looking into it I found a couple of bugs and a quality of
implementation issue.

- The test for signal_group_exit should be inside the for loop in get_signal.
- Signals should be requeued on the same queue they were dequeued from.
- When a fatal signal is pending ptrace_signal should not return another
  signal for delivery.

Kyle Huey has verified[2] an earlier version of this change.

I have reworked things one more time to completely fix the issues
raised, and to keep the code maintainable long term.

I have smoke tested this code and combined with a careful review I
expect this code to work fine.  Kyle if you can double check that
my last round of changes still works for rr I would appreciate it.

      signal: In get_signal test for signal_group_exit every time through the loop
      signal: Requeue signals in the appropriate queue
      signal: Requeue ptrace signals
