Instead of using a simple global++ as the data race, with this change we
perform the increment by loading the global, delaying for a bit and then
storing back the incremented value. If I move the increment outside of the
mutex protected range, I can now see the data race with only 100 iterations
on amd64 in almost all cases. Before this change such a racy test almost
always passed with < 100,000 iterations and only reliably failed with the
current limit of 10 million.
I noticed this poorly written test because the mutex:mutex{2,3} and
timedmutex:mutex{2,3} tests were always timing out on our CheriBSD Jenkins.
Writing good concurrency tests is hard so I won't attempt to do so, but this
change should make the test more likely to fail if pthread_mutex_lock is not
implemented correctly while also significantly reducing the time it takes to
run these four tests. It will also reduce the time it takes for QEMU RISC-V
testsuite runs by almost 40 minutes (out of currently 7 hours).

pthread_cond_timedwait() should wait _at least_ until the timeout,
but it might appear to wait longer due to system activity and
scheduling. The test ignored fractional seconds when comparing the
actual and expected timeouts, so it allowed anywhere between zero
and one extra second of wait time. Zero is a bit unreasonable.
Compare fractional seconds so we always allow up to one extra second.

This is not required of a compliant implementation, but it's easy to
check for and helps improve compatibility with other common
implementations. Moreover, it's consistent with our
pthread_mutex_destroy().

pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling and pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling
both return EINVAL if ->m_protocol != PTHREAD_PRIO_PROTECT. The
reasoning behind this decision isn't documented in neither the FreeBSD
