Summary:
**This PR updates RepeatableThread::wait, breaking some tests on OS X. The rest of the PR fixes the tests on OS X.**
`RepeatableThreadTest.MockEnvTest` uses `MockTimeEnv` and `RepeatableThread`. If `RepeatableThread::wait` calls `TimedWait` with a time smaller than or equal to the current (real) time, `TimedWait` returns immediately on certain platforms, e.g. OS X. #4560 addresses this issue by replacing `TimedWait` with `Wait` in test. This fixes the test but makes test/production code diverge, which is not optimal for test coverage. This PR proposes an alternative fix which unifies test and production code path for `RepeatableThread::wait`. We obtain the current (real) time in seconds and add 10 extra seconds to ensure that `RepeatableThread::wait` invokes `TimedWait` with a time greater than (real) current time. This is to prevent the `TimedWait` function from returning immediately without sleeping and releasing the mutex. If `TimedWait` returns immediately, the mutex will not be released, and `RepeatableThread::TEST_WaitForRun` never has a chance to execute the callback which, in this case, updates the result returned by `mock_env->NowMicros()`. Consequently, `RepeatableThread::wait` cannot break out of the loop, causing test to hang. The extra 10 seconds is a best-effort approach because there seems no reliable and deterministic way to provide the aforementioned guarantee. By the time `RepeatableThread::wait` is called, there is no guarantee that the `delay + mock_env->NowMicros()` will be greater than the current real time. However, 10 seconds should be sufficient in most cases. We will keep an eye for possible flakiness of this test.

Summary:
Introduce `RepeatableThread` utility to run task periodically in a separate thread. It is basically the same as the the same class in fbcode, and in addition provide a helper method to let tests mock time and trigger execution one at a time.
We can use this class to replace `TimerQueue` in #4382 and `BlobDB`.
