This looks great! I don't see any issues on a first look, and the cancellation code looks solid with no busy loops. |

This PR carries on from #1566. The background, implementation and limitations are largely the same as set out in that PR.
The key difference is that the background thread is now sent to sleep for the amount of the timeout (previously, the thread used
sleep(0)). To avoid a scenario where the fiber being monitored has finished running but the background thread remains asleep (which would prevent the process from terminating), the thread is now cancelled. This is achieved on POSIX by usingnanosleep(which creates a 'cancellation point' forpthread_cancel) and on Windows by usingSleepEx(which permits an asynchronous procedure call to be made usingQueueUserAPC).A test is also added to demonstrate usage.
Note
The
JanetTimeoutstruct is only used when theJANET_EVmacro is defined but was always being declared instate.h. This PR puts the declaration inside a preprocessor directive. This is similar to how<pthread.h>is only included if theJANET_EVmacro is defined.
