thread-posix: remove the posix semaphore support
POSIX specifies an absolute time for sem_timedwait(), it would be
affected if the system time is changing, but there is not a relative
time or monotonic clock version of sem_timedwait, so we cannot gain
from POSIX semaphore any more.
An alternative way is to use sem_trywait + usleep, maybe we can
remove CONFIG_SEM_TIMEDWAIT in this way? No, because some systems
(e.g. mac os) mark the sem_xxx API as deprecated.
So maybe remove the usage of POSIX semaphore and turn to use the
pthread variant for all systems looks better.
