Raise a SIGCONT to the whole process group after receiving a SIGTTOU, so that pipelines can be resumed in the background (for example "pv /dev/zero | cat > /dev/null" can now be suspended and put into the background - if we do not send that signal then "cat" remains stopped, as mentioned in issue #56).

### UNRELEASED
* i18n: complete set of German translations supplied by Hartmut Goebel ([#98](https://codeberg.org/a-j-wood/pv/pulls/98))
* fix: resume stopped pipelines when running in the background (part of [#56](https://codeberg.org/a-j-wood/pv/issues/56))
* fix: write UTC timestamps in debugging mode to avoid lockups in signal handlers
* cleanup: removed TODO.md, since it's just an outdated copy of the issue tracker
* cleanup: re-ordered structure members to reduce padding
