We have several tests that catch and ignore InterruptedException for sleep or await, so I fixed these tests to throw an error if InterruptedException is caught (they may or may not be a problem, but if any of them can happen in a loop, it would block the timeout from killing the test).

The reason for this is that the deadlock almost always occurs when called from a shutdown hook (called by `System.exit`), and that prevents the process from exiting even when interrupted by the test runner after the timeout. A separate PR is out for that bug fix.

That branch has the fixes from both this PR and PR #1574 as well as tests that will hang indefinitely without the fixes and fail due to the expected timeout with the fixes.
