posix-cpu-timers: Reset expire cache when no timer is running
When a process deletes cpu timer or a timer expires we do not clear the expiration cache sig->cputimer_expires. As a result the fastpath_timer_check() which prevents us to loop over all threads in case no timer is active is not working and we run the slow path needlessly on every tick. Zero sig->cputimer_expires in stop_process_timers().
