Improves the docstring on signal.strsignal to make it explain when it returns a message, None, or when it raises ValueError.

Fix signal.NSIG value on FreeBSD to accept signal numbers greater
than 32, like signal.SIGRTMIN and signal.SIGRTMAX.
* Add Py_NSIG constant.
* Add pycore_signal.h internal header file.
* _Py_Sigset_Converter() now includes the range of valid signals in
the error message.
Update documentation to note that in some circumstances,
KeyboardInterrupt may cause code to enter an inconsistent state. Also
document sample workaround to avoid KeyboardInterrupt, if needed.
COMPUTE_EVAL_BREAKER() now also checks if the Python thread state
belongs to the main interpreter. Don't break the evaluation loop if
there are pending signals but the Python thread state it belongs to a
subinterpeter.
* Add _Py_IsMainThread() function.
* Add _Py_ThreadCanHandleSignals() function.
This exposes a Linux-specific syscall for sending a signal to a process
identified by a file descriptor rather than a pid.
For simplicity, we don't support the siginfo_t parameter to the syscall. This
parameter allows implementing a pidfd version of rt_sigqueueinfo(2), which
Python also doesn't support.
As in title, expose C `raise` function as `raise_function` in `signal` module. Also drop existing `raise_signal` in `_testcapi` module and replace all usages with new function.

All signal.SIG* constants may not be defined on Windows so a call like
signal.signal(signal.SIGPIPE, lambda signum, frame: sys.exit(1))
will raise an AttributeError.
when interrupted by a signal not in the *sigset* parameter, if the signal
handler does not raise an exception. signal.sigtimedwait() recomputes the
timeout with a monotonic clock when it is retried.
Remove test_signal.test_sigwaitinfo_interrupted() because sigwaitinfo() doesn't
raise InterruptedError anymore if it is interrupted by a signal not in its
sigset parameter.
