Description

As reported at https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/11932, the Python Flight server does not allow control over which signals the Flight server will react to, nor does it respect enable_signal_handlers. The latter is a bit pointless - if the server runs on the main thread, there is no way to handle signals in Python - but allowing control over the signals may be more feasible.
