Redox to implement POSIX signals in user space

Description:
Redox has received a
grant to work on implementing POSIX-compatible signals. The draft design 
calls for them to be implemented nearly completely in user space. So far, the 
signals project has been going according to plan, and
hopefully, POSIX support for signals will be mostly complete by the
end of summer, with in-kernel improvements to process management.
After that, work on the userspace process manager will begin,
possibly including new kernel performance and/or functionality
improvements to facilitate this.
