Here's a draft patch that adds a minimal sigaction() implementation
for Windows.  It doesn't implement stuff we're not using, for sample
sa_sigaction functions, but it has the sa_mask feature so we can
harmonize the stuff that I believe you were talking about.

Commits

  1. Provide sigaction() for Windows.

  2. Emulate sigprocmask(), not sigsetmask(), on Windows.

  3. Make dsm_impl_posix_resize more future-proof.

  4. Don't clobber postmaster sigmask in dsm_impl_resize.

  5. Create a distinct wait event for POSIX DSM allocation.

  6. Remove redundant ftruncate() for POSIX DSM memory.

  7. Block signals while allocating DSM memory.

  8. Remove dsm_resize() and dsm_remap().

  9. XLOG (also known as WAL -:)) Bootstrap/Startup/Shutdown.
