signals: use __group_complete_signal() for the specific signals too
Based on Pavel Emelyanov's suggestion. Rename __group_complete_signal() to complete_signal() and use it to process the specific signals too. To do this we simply add the "int group" argument. This allows us to greatly simply the signal-sending code and adds a useful behaviour change. We can avoid the unneeded wakeups for the private signals because wants_signal() is more clever than sigismember(blocked), but more importantly we now take into account the fatal specific signals too. The latter allows us to kill some subtle checks in handle_stop_signal() and makes the specific/group signal's behaviour more consistent. For example, currently sigtimedwait(FATAL_SIGNAL) behaves differently depending on was the signal sent by kill() or tkill() if the signal was not blocked. And. This allows us to tweak/fix the behaviour when the specific signal is sent to the dying/dead ->group_leader.
