  Allow configuration of the signals used for GC

On Posix systems druntime's GC uses SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 to implement suspension of threads for its garbage collector. When integrating D into existing programs written in other languages such as C or C++, SIGUSR1/SIGUSR2 may already have an existing meaning. This allows those programs to use currently unused signals for D's GC, most likely some of the POSIX real time signals where availble.

This is acheived by calling thread_setGCSignals prior to thread_init, at most once. If it is not called the runtime will continue to use SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2. The functionality leaves the choice of signals up to the caller, it does not assume any particular real time signal or that real time signals are available.

  Log Message:

  Improve documentation of thread_setGCSignals.

Fix some typos, and ensure that the documentation is available when generating docs on any system, while also clarifying it is Posix-only.
