With the goal of centralizing all tests in the system, this is a
first step to establish a Tests sub-tree. It will contain all of
the unit tests and test harnesses for the various components in the
system.
This adds a test for the race condition in clock_nanosleep.
The crux is that clock_nanosleep verifies that the output buffer
is writable *before* sleeping, and writes to it *after* sleeping.
In the meantime, a concurrent thread can make the output buffer
unwritable, e.g. by deallocating it.
This testcase is needlessly complex because pthread_kill is
not implemented yet. I tried to keep it as simple as possible.
Here is the relevant part of dmesg:

Most importantly, note that it crashes *inside*
Kernel::Process::sys.
Instead, the correct behavior is to return -EFAULT.
