Series posix-timers: Cure inconsistencies and the SIG_IGN mess |

Commit Message

Thomas Gleixner June 6, 2023, 2:38 p.m. UTC 
  To cure the SIG_IGN handling for posix interval timers, the preallocated
sigqueue needs to be embedded into struct k_itimer to prevent life time
races of all sorts.

Provide a new function to initialize the embedded sigqueue to prepare for
that.
