  Modified files:
    sys/sys              timers.h 
    sys/kern             kern_sig.c kern_time.c 
  Log:
  Let itimer store itimerspec instead of itimerval, so I don't have to
  convert to or from timeval frequently.
  
  Introduce function itimer_accept() to ack a timer signal in signal
  acceptance code, this allows us to return more fresh overrun counter
  than at signal generating time. while POSIX says:
  "the value returned by timer_getoverrun() shall apply to the most
  recent expiration signal delivery or acceptance for the timer,.."
  I prefer returning it at acceptance time.
  
  Introduce SIGEV_THREAD_ID notification mode, it is used by thread
  libary to request kernel to deliver signal to a specified thread,
  and in turn, the thread library may use the mechanism to implement
  SIGEV_THREAD which is required by POSIX.
  
  Timer signal is managed by timer code, so it can not fail even if
  signal queue is full filled by sigqueue syscall.
