Subject: Bug 18121 - Use a monotonic clock for pthread timeouts

Patch based on one from Keith Mok <ek9852@gmail.com>, some
followup work from Janne Karhunen <Janne.Karhunen@gmail.com>.

We don't want condition variable timeouts to be affected by the system clock.
Use the POSIX CLOCK_MONOTONIC if available.
(cherry picked from commit ae24bb35e2ee3ecde990f55852982b573754ec43)
