files: block the resizing signal while reading from an external command
...
A SIGWINCH somehow causes the input stream to see EOT, with the result
that any remaining output of an external program would be lost.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56038 ,
and fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56033 .

The keystrokes are recognized and acted upon, but they are not visible
in the menu nor in the help text, and they cannot be rebound. They are
there just to avoid frustrating the muscle memory of long-time users.

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.

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".
