Subject: [PATCH] Silence buildbot warnings about unused results

This ignores the results of the two writes in sigint handlers even
harder than before.

While my libc lacks the declarations that trigger these warnings, this
can be tested by adding the following to notmuch.h:

__attribute__((warn_unused_result))
ssize_t write(int fd, const void *buf, size_t count);
