kselftests: introduce new epoll60 testcase for catching lost wakeups

This test case catches lost wake up introduced by commit 339ddb53d373
("fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll")

The test is simple: we have 10 threads and 10 event fds.  Each thread
can harvest only 1 event.  1 producer fires all 10 events at once and
waits that all 10 events will be observed by 10 threads.

In case of lost wakeup epoll_wait() will timeout and 0 will be returned.

Test case catches two sort of problems: forgotten wakeup on event, which
hits the ->ovflist list, this problem was fixed by:

  5a2513239750 ("eventpoll: fix missing wakeup for ovflist in ep_poll_callback")

the other problem is when several sequential events hit the same waiting
thread, thus other waiters get no wakeups.  Problem is fixed in the
following patch.
