Feature #13639: Add "RTMIN" and "RTMAX" to Signal.list

I propose to add the key "RTMIN" and "RTMAX" to Signal.list

Currently, We can't know signal number for realtime-signal at own environment in Ruby.
And it's not potable if hard code number literal.

So, How about this idea?

Use case:

unless Signal.list["RTMIN"]
  raise "realtime-signal does not supported"
end

MY_SIGNAL = Signal.list["RTMIN"] + 1

Signal.trap(MY_SIGNAL) do |i|
  puts "Hello MY_SIGNAL"
end

Process.kill(MY_SIGNAL, $$)
#=> "Hello MY_SIGNAL"

I propose

• Signal::RTMIN
• Signal::RTMAX

instead.
