[PATCH] posix-timers: use try_to_del_timer_sync()

sys_timer_settime/sys_timer_delete needs to delete k_itimer->real.timer
synchronously while holding ->it_lock, which is also locked in
posix_timer_fn.

This patch removes timer_active/set_timer_inactive which plays with
timer_list's internals in favour of using try_to_del_timer_sync(), which
was introduced in the previous patch.
