Bug description:
  [Impact]
  LightDM quits when it receives SIGUSR1, SIGUSR2 or SIGHUP. But convention 
these signals should not quit a service (they should get it to dump state, 
reload configuration etc).

  [Test Case]
  1. Start lightdm
  2. sudo killall -SIGHUP lightdm

  Expected result:
  Nothing happens

  Observed result:
  LightDM restarts

  [Regression Potential]
  Low. We now just quit only on SIGTERM and SIGINT.
