Patch to fix bug

I'm running g-ir-scanner on macOS 10.12 / XCode 8 and getting a bunch of warnings printed:

/usr/include/signal.h:79: syntax error, unexpected identifier, expecting ')' in 'void (* _Nullable bsd_signal(int, void
(* _Nullable)(int)))(int);' at 'bsd_signal'
/usr/include/signal.h:79: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting ',' or ';' in 'void (* _Nullable bsd_signal(int, void
(* _Nullable)(int)))(int);' at ')'
/usr/include/signal.h:99: syntax error, unexpected identifier, expecting ')' in 'void (* _Nullable sigset(int, void (* _
Nullable)(int)))(int);' at 'sigset'
/usr/include/signal.h:99: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting ',' or ';' in 'void (* _Nullable sigset(int, void (* _
Nullable)(int)))(int);' at ')'
...



This is caused by new type qualifiers introduced in XCode 7.

    Ignore _Nonnull,_Nullable and _Null_unspecified type qualifiers
    
    These qualifiers are present in header files on macOS (introduced in
    XCode 7).
