[Support] Avoid concurrency hazard in signal handler registration

Several static functions from the signal API can be invoked
simultaneously; RemoveFileOnSignal for instance can be called indirectly
by multiple parallel loadModule() invocations, which might lead to
the assertion:

Assertion failed: (NumRegisteredSignals < array_lengthof(RegisteredSignalInfo) && "Out of space for signal handlers!"),
  function RegisterHandler, file /llvm/lib/Support/Unix/Signals.inc, line 105.

RemoveFileOnSignal calls RegisterHandlers(), which isn't currently
mutex protected, leading to the behavior above. This potentially affect
a few other users of RegisterHandlers() too.
