RT #76248: double-freed SV with nested sig-handler
There was some buggy code in Perl_sighandler() related to getting an SV with the signal name to pass to the perl-level handler function. ` Basically: on threaded builds, a sig handler that died leaked PL_psig_name[sig]; on unthreaded builds, in a recursive handler that died, PL_sig_sv was prematurely freed. PL_sig_sv was originally just a file static var that was not recursion-save anyway, and got promoted to perlvars.h when it should instead have been done away with. So I've got rid of it now, and rationalised the code, which fixed the two issues listed above. Also added an assert which makes the dodgy manual popping of the save stack slightly less dodgy.
