[ruby-core:102813] [Ruby master Bug#16608] ConditionVariable#wait should return false when timeout exceeded

Issue #16608 has been updated by jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans).


I've added a pull request that builds on @nobu's pull request, but uses a new method (`Mutex#sleep_for`) instead of making backwards-incompatible changes to `Mutex#sleep`: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/4256

----------------------------------------
The following program prints `false` on Ruby 1.8, but `true` on Ruby 1.9 or later.

```
require "monitor"
m = Monitor.new
c = m.new_cond
m.synchronize { p c.wait(0.1) }
```

However, it's not critical because most programs check the condition after wait.
