tests/sighook: Fix Valgrind compatibility
Valgrind does not deliver async signals in a timely manner; by default,
it polls for new signals every 1,000 basic blocks. That means we can
get SIGALRM delivered after timer_delete(), or kill(SIGSEGV) never
delivered after pause().
Fix the timer_delete() issue by reordering the cleanup path. Valgrind
always polls pending signals after pthread_sigmask(), so call that
between timer_delete() and sigunhook().
Fix the pause() issue by sleeping in a loop instead.
Note that --fair-sched=yes is required to avoid starvation of the
background thread.
