Previously, two bugs exist in sigtimedwait(). One is, that since _my_tls.sigwait_mask was left non-zero if the signal arrives after the timeout, sigpacket::process() would wrongly try to handle it. The other is if a timeout occurs after sigpacket::process() is called, but not completed yet, the signal handler can be called accidentally. If the signal handler is set to SIG_DFL or SIG_IGN, access violation will occur in both cases.
With this patch, in sigwait_common(), check if sigwait_mask == 0 to confirm that sigpacket::process() cleared it. In this case, do not treat WAIT_TIMEOUT, but call cygwait() again to retrieve the signal. Furthermore, sigpacket::process() checks whether timeout occurs in sigwait_common() and if timeout already happens, do not treat the signal as waited. In both cases, to avoid race issues, the code is guarded by cygtls::lock().
