selftest: Timers: Avoid signal deadlock in leap-a-day In 0c4a5fc95b1df (Add leap-second timer edge testing to leap-a-day.c), we added a timer to the test which checks to make sure timers near the leapsecond edge behave correctly. However, the output generated from the timer uses ctime_r, which isn't async-signal safe, and should that signal land while the main test is using ctime_r to print its output, its possible for the test to deadlock on glibc internal locks. Thus this patch reworks the output to avoid using ctime_r in the signal handler.
