Summary:                    CTest option to pass signals down to tests
Description: 
I have a test suite harnessed with CTest that gets zombified processes if
someone CTRL+C's during the test runs. Within those tests, I have registered a
SIGINT handler that gracefully shuts down and ensures the zombification doesn't
happen, but that handler is never called because CTest does not pass signals
through to running tests. It would be great to have a test property or even just
an argument to ctest_test() that would cause signals received by the ctest
process to be sent to the running test processes.
