Perform some general code clean-up in those areas.

Convert xmalloc()/strcpy() to xstrdup().

   to "bar = xstrdup(foo);":

  - use pthread_sigmask() instead of sigprocmask()
  - save blocked signals just before unblocking them in
    src/srun/allocate.c:allocate_nodes, then reinstate this mask before
    removing handlers.

Slurmctld maintains the node reason, clears when node returned to service,
preserves value across restarts.
