Auto merge of #97802 - Enselic:add-no_ignore_sigkill-feature, r=joshtriplett
Support `#[unix_sigpipe = "inherit|sig_dfl"]` on `fn main()` to prevent ignoring `SIGPIPE`
When enabled, programs don't have to explicitly handle `ErrorKind::BrokenPipe` any longer. Currently, the program
```rust
fn main() { loop { println!("hello world"); } }
```
will print an error if used with a short-lived pipe, e.g.
% ./main | head -n 1
hello world
thread 'main' panicked at 'failed printing to stdout: Broken pipe (os error 32)', library/std/src/io/stdio.rs:1016:9
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
by enabling `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]` like this
```rust
#![feature(unix_sigpipe)]
#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]
fn main() { loop { println!("hello world"); } }
```
there is no error, because `SIGPIPE` will not be ignored and thus the program will be killed appropriately:
% ./main | head -n 1
hello world
The current libstd behaviour of ignoring `SIGPIPE` before `fn main()` can be explicitly requested by using `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_ign"]`.
With `#[unix_sigpipe = "inherit"]`, no change at all is made to `SIGPIPE`, which typically means the behaviour will be the same as `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]`.
See rust-lang/rust#62569 and referenced issues for discussions regarding the `SIGPIPE` problem itself
