Various futex fixes

Jacob Lorentzon requested to merge 4lDO2/relibc:fix_sync into master

This makes futex use FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET (with bitset !0 i.e. "all bits") on Linux, where the timeout is absolute. Absolute timeouts are preferred, since pthread timeouts are absolute, and since they are much simpler to work with (it's hard to keep track of the time that may pass, possibly preemption, between requesting a timeout, and that timeout actually reaching the kernel).

It also fixes timeouts, which are currently ignored, and without ETIMEDOUT checks.
