 unhandled_interruption and unhandled_exceptions

> Neither unhandled_interrupt nor unhandled_exceptions fills in any of the
> siginfo fields whend sending SIGKILL.  Further because it is SIGKILL
> even if all of the fields were filled out appropriately it would be impossible
> for the process to read any of the siginfo fields.  So simplfy things and
> just use force_sig instead of force_sig_info.
