Andrew Deason 1acc612687 tests: Avoid generating cores in softsig-helper
Our opr/softsig-t tests run softsig-helper to generate SIGSEGV and
SIGBUS signals (among other things), which may generate core files (if
'ulimit -c' is nonzero). The core files are useless, since we expect
those signals to be generated.

Usually the core files are generated in the build tree (where we run the
tests from), which is a minor annoyance. But some systems may be
configured to store core files in a central location (e.g.
/var/lib/systemd/coredump), which starts to build up over time after
many builds.

To avoid this, prevent core files from being generated in softsig-helper
for the SIGSEGV and SIGBUS cases by calling setrlimit().

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and
access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as
they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is
called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many
different machines, but are available to users on every machine.
