08f6380a9f Rewrite Condvar::wait_timeout and make it public
**The implementation is a direct adaptation of libcxx's
condition_variable implementation.**

pthread_cond_timedwait uses the non-monotonic system clock. It's
possible to change the clock to a monotonic via pthread_cond_attr, but
this is incompatible with static initialization. To deal with this, we
calculate the timeout using the system clock, and maintain a separate
record of the start and end times with a monotonic clock to be used for
calculation of the return value.

f3a7ec7028 std: Second pass stabilization of sync
This pass performs a second pass of stabilization through the `std::sync`
module, avoiding modules/types that are being handled in other PRs (e.g.
mutexes, rwlocks, condvars, and channels).

The following items are now stable

* `sync::atomic`
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_BOOL_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_BOOL`)
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_INT_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_INT`)
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_UINT_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_UINT`)
* `sync::Once`
* `sync::ONCE_INIT`
* `sync::Once::call_once` (was `doit`)
  * C == `pthread_once(..)`
  * Boost == `call_once(..)`
  * Windows == `InitOnceExecuteOnce`
* `sync::Barrier`
* `sync::Barrier::new`
* `sync::Barrier::wait` (now returns a `bool`)
* `sync::Semaphore::new`
* `sync::Semaphore::acquire`
* `sync::Semaphore::release`

The following items remain unstable

* `sync::SemaphoreGuard`
* `sync::Semaphore::access` - it's unclear how this relates to the poisoning
                              story of mutexes.
* `sync::TaskPool` - the semantics of a failing task and whether a thread is
                     re-attached to a thread pool are somewhat unclear, and the
                     utility of this type in `sync` is question with respect to
                     the jobs of other primitives. This type will likely become
                     stable or move out of the standard library over time.
* `sync::Future` - futures as-is have yet to be deeply re-evaluated with the
                   recent core changes to Rust's synchronization story, and will
                   likely become stable in the future but are unstable until
                   that time comes.

fcd05ed99f time: Deprecate the library in the distribution
This commit deprecates the entire libtime library in favor of the
externally-provided libtime in the rust-lang organization. Users of the
`libtime` crate as-is today should add this to their Cargo manifests:

    [dependencies.time]
    git = "https://github.com/rust-lang/time"

To implement this transition, a new function `Duration::span` was added to the
`std::time::Duration` time. This function takes a closure and then returns the
duration of time it took that closure to execute. This interface will likely
improve with `FnOnce` unboxed closures as moving in and out will be a little
easier.

Due to the deprecation of the in-tree crate, this is a:

cc #18855, some of the conversions in the `src/test/bench` area may have been a
little nicer with that implemented

77cdaf018c std: Refactor time module a bit
Put `Duration` in `time::duration`, where the two constants can
be called just `MAX` and `MIN`. Reexport from `time`.
This provides more room for the time module to expand.
