    bpo-41686: Always create the SIGINT event on Windows (GH-23344)
    
    bpo-41686, bpo-41713: On Windows, the SIGINT event,
    _PyOS_SigintEvent(), is now created even if Python is configured to
    not install signal handlers (PyConfig.install_signal_handlers=0 or
    Py_InitializeEx(0)).
    
    Changes:
    
    * Move global variables initialization from signal_exec() to
      _PySignal_Init() to clarify that they are global variables cleared
      by _PySignal_Fini().
    * _PySignal_Fini() now closes sigint_event.
    * IntHandler is no longer a global variable.

resolution:  -> fixed
