Fixed in git, commit 0f7a309a , by always installing the SIGCONT handler.

To reproduce, run 'src/nano --ignore THANKS'.  Then, in a different terminal, do 'kill -SIGSTOP $(pidof nano)'.  Go back to the first terminal and type: fg <Enter>.  See that nano does not properly resume because the shell prompt and the echoed command stay on screen.  (Type ^X ^M to get out.)

Now run 'src/nano --ignore --suspend THANKS'.  Then do again 'kill -SIGSTOP $(pidof nano)' in the second terminal.  And in the first type again: fg <Enter>.  Hopla, the screen and the terminal are properly restored, nano is awake again.

The problem seems to be in signal_init(), where the SIGCONT handler gets installed only when --suspend is in effect.  :|  How silly.  Without --suspend, why only install a SIGSTP handler but not a SIGCONT handler?
