Subject: [patch V3 42/51] posix-timers: Embed sigqueue in struct k_itimer
To cure the SIG_IGN handling for posix interval timers, the preallocated
sigqueue needs to be embedded into struct k_itimer to prevent life time
races of all sorts.
Now that the prerequisites are in place, embed the sigqueue into struct
k_itimer and fixup the relevant usage sites.
Aside of preparing for proper SIG_IGN handling, this spares an extra
allocation.
