Brian Curtin e5aa886b44 Implement #1220212. Add os.kill support for Windows.
os.kill takes one of two newly added signals, CTRL_C_EVENT and
CTRL_BREAK_EVENT, or any integer value. The events are a special case
which work with subprocess console applications which implement a
special console control handler. Any other value but those two will
cause os.kill to use TerminateProcess, outright killing the process.

This change adds win_console_handler.py, which is a script to implement
SetConsoleCtrlHandler and applicable handler function, using ctypes.

subprocess also gets another attribute which is a necessary flag to
creationflags in Popen in order to send the CTRL events.

Facundo Batista 7e251e83d5 Issue 1089358. Adds the siginterrupt() function, that is just a

test cases, doc changes and NEWS entry. Thanks Jason and Ralf

Guido van Rossum 02de8979cc Patch #1583 by Adam Olsen.
This adds signal.set_wakeup_fd(fd) which sets a file descriptor to
which a zero byte will be written whenever a C exception handler runs.

I added a simple C API as well, PySignal_SetWakeupFd(fd).
