Allocating on the cygheap would copy information of the tracker into
the child process. A forked child knows the timer id and could simply
still access the (free'd but still valid) timer_tracker on the heap,
which is dangerous and very certainly doesn't reflect POSIX semantics.

- Rename files timer.* to posix_timer.*.
- Reimplement using an OS timer rather than a handcrafted wait loop.
- Use a Slim R/W Lock for synchronization.
- Drop timer chaining. It doesn't server a purpose since all timers
are local only.
- Rename ttstart to itimer_tracker to better reflect its purpose.
It's not the anchor for a timer chain anymore anyway.
- Drop fixup_timers_after_fork. Everything is process-local, nothing
gets inherited.
- Rename timer_tracker::disarm_event to disarm_overrun_event for
better readability.
