locking/ww_mutex: Add waiters in stamp order
Add regular waiters in stamp order. Keep adding waiters that have no
context in FIFO order and take care not to starve them.
While adding our task as a waiter, back off if we detect that there is
a waiter with a lower stamp in front of us.
Make sure to call lock_contended even when we back off early.
For w/w mutexes, being first in the wait list is only stable when
taking the lock without a context. Therefore, the purpose of the first
flag is split into two: 'first' remains to indicate whether we want to
spin optimistically, while 'handoff' indicates that we should be
prepared to accept a handoff.
For w/w locking with a context, we always accept handoffs after the
first schedule(), to handle the following sequence of events:
1. Task #0 unlocks and hands off to Task #2 which is first in line
2. Task #1 adds itself in front of Task #2
3. Task #2 wakes up and must accept the handoff even though it is no
longer first in line
