[LTP] [PATCH v2] syscalls/shmctl05: new test for IPC file use-after-free bug

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

Test for a bug in the System V IPC subsystem that resulted in a shared
memory file being used after it was freed (or being freed).

Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

Changed since v1:
    - Use using "fuzzy sync" spinlocks instead of random sleeps.
    - Use threads with .timeout instead of processes.
    - Use SAFE_SHMAT() instead of shmat() directly.
    - Use tst_timer_expired_ms() instead of
      tst_timer_stop() + tst_timer_elapsed_ms().
