qemu-thread: Don't block SEGV, ILL and FPE
If any of these signals happen on macOS, they are not delivered to other
threads and signalfd_compat receives nothing. Indeed, POSIX reference
and sigprocmask(2) note that an attempt to block the signals results in
undefined behaviour. SEGV and FPE can't also be received by signalfd(2)
on Linux.
An ability to retrieve SIGBUS via signalfd(2) is used by QEMU for
memory preallocation therefore we can't unblock it without consequences.
But it's important to leave a remark that the signal is lost on macOS.
