feedback: show a message while executing an external command
...
Some commands can take a little while to execute; showing just the prompt
during that time could give the impression that nothing is happening.
This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56041 .

files: initialize a variable before referencing it
...
The lack of initialization caused a nasty bug on some targets (such as
ARMv7) which would make it so that ^S would just say "Cancelled".
While x86 (both 64 and 32 bits) seems to initialize 'response' to zero or
a positive number, ARM does not, and there is usually a negative value in
its place, which triggers the 'if (response < 0)' check and, as a result,
the code says "Cancelled".
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56023 .

The blocking is needed only during the wait(), so unblock SIGWINCH
