Subject: [PATCH 0/3] selftests: timers: Convert some more of the timers tests to KTAP

KTAP is the standard output format for selftests, providing a method for
systems running the selftests to get results from individual tests
rather than just a pass/fail for the test program as a whole. While
many of the timers tests use KTAP some have custom output formats, let's
convert a few more to KTAP to make them work better in automation.

The posix_timers test made use of perror(), I've added a generic helper
to kselftest.h for that since it seems like it'll be useful elsewhere.

There are more tests that don't use KTAP, several of them just run a
single test so don't really benefit from KTAP and there were a couple
where the conversion was a bit more complex so I've left them for now.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] selftests: timers: Convert posix_timers test to generate KTAP output

Currently the posix_timers test does not produce KTAP output but rather a
custom format. This means that we only get a pass/fail for the suite, not
for each individual test that the suite does. Convert to using the standard
kselftest output functions which result in KTAP output being generated.

As part of this fix the printing of diagnostics in the unlikely event that
the pthread APIs fail, these were using perror() but the API functions
directly return an error code instead of setting errno.
