rcuwait: Support timeouts

The rcuwait utility provides an efficient and safe single
wait/wake mechanism. It is used in situations where queued
wait is the wrong semantics, and often too bulky. For example,
cases where the wait is already done under a lock.

In the past, rcuwait has been extended to support beyond only
uninterruptible sleep, and similarly, there are users that can
benefit for the addition of timeouts.

As such, tntroduce rcuwait_wait_event_timeout(), with semantics
equivalent to calls for queued wait counterparts.
