Please review moving the functionality of sun.misc.Signal to 
jdk.internal.misc and
creating a wrapper sun.misc.Signal for existing external uses.
A new replacement API will be considered separately.

The update includes a test that passes with or without the changes.
(Except for an NPE instead of SEGV if null is passed).
