selftests: add basic posix timers selftests

Add some initial basic tests on a few posix timers interface such as
setitimer() and timer_settime().

These simply check that expiration happens in a reasonable timeframe after
expected elapsed clock time (user time, user + system time, real time,
...).

This is helpful for finding basic breakages while hacking
on this subsystem.
