timers: Sanitize catchup_timer_jiffies() usage

catchup_timer_jiffies() has been applied blindly to several functions
without looking for possible better ways to do it.

1) internal_add_timer()

   Move the update to base->all_timers before we actually insert the
   timer into the wheel.

2) detach_if_pending()

   Again the update to base->all_timers allows us to explicitely do
   the timer_jiffies update in place, if this was the last timer which
   got removed.

3) __run_timers()

   We only check on entry, which is silly, because base->timer_jiffies
   can be behind - especially on NOHZ kernels - and if there is a
   single deferrable timer somewhere between base->timer_jiffies and
   jiffies we expire it and then loop until base->timer_jiffies ==
   jiffies.

   Move it into the loop.
