[jdk17] RFR: 8269865: Async UL needs to handle ERANGE on exceeding SEM_VALUE_MAX [v3]

[Xin Liu]

> This patch solved the sempahore overflow issue with errno ERANGE or EOVERFLOW.
> Previously, we have asymmetric p/v operations for semaphore _sem. Each iteration
> only decrements _sem 1 but dequeues N messages. If logging threads keep preempting
> async logging thread, it may cause the value of _sem accumulates until overflow! 
> 
> The patch corrects the value of _sem after write(). n messages are dequeued/processed.
> We need to invoke _sem.wait() max(n-1, 1) time. This ensures that each iteration
> decrements n instead of 1.
