Timer accounting tests are tricky to get right and prone to show a
lot of false positive failures and has bitten us in the past (check
04deeaa9ea74 and 9a29f1a2ae3d4b).

So I think we should be as simple as possible and take in consideration
that tests will run a timer shared machine so even with a busy wait the
result timer might not take in consideration the desirable timeout.

So for geturage (which afaik is also deprecated on future POSIX) I
more simpler tests would be to:

   1. Check for invalid 'who' (the EFAULT result from man-pages only
      trigger where syscall is issued directly, which is not always
      the case for glibc).

   2. Issue getusage and check if the ru_utime.tv_nsec and
      ru_stime.tv_nsec are within the microseconds range.

   3. Do some very short busy wait (10ms) and check if the
      ru_utime.tv_sec and ru_stime.tv_sec are equal or larger
      than the previous one.

Also, I think this tests should generic, so move to resource
folder.
