bindings docs: the Ctrl-C known issue links jpype#1496 and documents the SIGTERM crash (jpype#1497) - #200

…the SIGTERM crash (jpype#1497) with its workaround With startJVM(interrupt=False) and no Python SIGTERM handler, kill -TERM crashes the process in PyErr_SetInterruptEx (exit -6; 10 of 10 on JPype 1.7.1 and master, 3 of 3 through the bindings). A handler registered after the first database is opened stops it at once (3 of 3); one registered before the JVM starts avoids the crash but runs only when the main thread next executes Python code, so a blocking time.sleep delays it (measured with plain JPype). Closes #199. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Ubz3m6QXHESerCkehC1qgi

Links the two JPype issues the user filed (jpype-project/jpype#1496, the SIGINT ordering race, and ArcadeData#1497, the SIGTERM crash) from the Ctrl-C known-issues entry, and documents the SIGTERM crash with the workaround as measured: a handler registered after the JVM has started stops the process at once; one registered before it avoids the crash but runs only when the main thread next executes Python code.
Closes #199.
