aio-posix: ensure poll mode is left when aio_notify is called
With aio=thread, adaptive polling makes latency worse rather than
better, because it delays the execution of the ThreadPool's
completion bottom half.
event_notifier_poll() does run while polling, detecting that
a bottom half was scheduled by a worker thread, but because
ctx->notifier is explicitly ignored in run_poll_handlers_once(),
scheduling the BH does not count as making progress and
run_poll_handlers() keeps running. Fix this by recomputing
the deadline after *timeout could have changed.
With this change, ThreadPool still cannot participate in polling
but at least it does not suffer from extra latency.
