fix various bugs and issues with alarm(2)
1.  after 49/2 days, it is possible for a process at the head of the alarm
list clearing its alarm with alarm(0) to stop processing of the alarm list
for 49/2 days.

2.  after 49/2 days, it is possible for processes clearing their alarm with
alarm(0) to cause new timers to be inserted out-of-order.

3.  it is possible for alarms to be delivered to a different process if the alarm
kproc does not hold up-debug when checking the alarm.
