n_tty: signal and flush atomically
When handling signalling char, claim the termios write lock before signalling waiting readers and writers to prevent further i/o before flushing the echo and output buffers. This prevents a userspace signal handler which may output from racing the terminal flush. Reference: Bugzilla #99351 ("Output truncated in ssh session after...")
