The POSIX timers API is implemented (mostly) within the kernel,
so thse interfaces are system calls.  Although there are as yet
no man pages, when they are added they should be in Section 2,
not 3.  Therefore fix those pages that currently refer to these
interfaces as being in Section 3.

Michael Kerrisk 447cd9e76e pthreads.7: Rework, and fix small error in, thread-safe function list
Integrate the changes that occurred in POSIX.1-2008 into the
main list (to be consistent with the list, elsewhere on this
page, of functions that are cancellation points).

Also, fix an error that said that strerror() was added to
the list in POSIX.1-2008.  It was strsignal() that was
added.  (strerror() was already in the list in POSIX.1-2001.)
