RFR: 8312498: Thread::getState and JVM TI GetThreadState should return TIMED_WAITING virtual thread is timed parked

Thread::getState is an API for monitoring and management purposes to report the thread state. If a virtual thread is parked with LockSupport.parkNanos, its state is reported as  WAITING when it should be TIMED_WAITING. JVM TI GetThreadState has the same issue in that it returns JVMTI_THREAD_STATE_WAITING_INDEFINITELY instead of the JVMTI_THREAD_STATE_WAITING_WITH_TIMEOUT bit set. Not a very visible issue because JDWP maps both states to "WAIT" but it may be noticed by tools using other JVM TI agents.

The change is straight-forward, it's just additional state bit to indicate that park is timed. The existing virtual/ThreadAPI.java test is expanded to this scenario. A new test is added for JVM TI GetThreadState to test waiting/timed-waited cases (including pinned) as test coverage seems patchy here.
