selftests: futex: Add tests for robust release operations

Add tests for __vdso_futex_robust_listXX_try_unlock() and for the futex()
op FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK.

Test the contended and uncontended cases for the vDSO functions and all
ops combinations for FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK.

[ tglx: Replace the VDSO function lookup ]
