Trust signalfd on illumos, again.

Commit 3ab4fc5d avoided choosing signalfd by default on illumos, because
it triggered kernel panics.  That was fixed, so we can remove a kludge
from our code.  Users/packagers can still override the default choice at
compile time if desired, and we'll leave the back-branches unchanged so
they keep choosing self-pipe by default, but we'll default to signalfd
(like we do for Linux) in 17.  Fixed kernels should be everywhere by the
time 17 ships.
