Defer SIGHUP handlers to reactor. (#8817)
We can get a SIGHUP at any point, including times where we are not in a
sane state. By deferring calling the handlers until the next reactor
tick we ensure that we don't get unexpected conflicts, e.g. trying to
flush logs from the signal handler while the code was in the process of
writing a log entry.

Fixes #8769.
