So I was playing with the whole worker timeout thing last night and
realized this is broken. If we get a signal while we have a timeout, the
timeout gets lost.

I think the easiest solution is to have umcg_notify_resume() also resume
the timeout, but the first pass of that was yuck, so I need to try
again.

Related, by moving the whole enqueue-and-wake thing into the timeout, we
get more 'fun' failure cases :-(

Oh well..
