Peter Hutterer 06b87aa528 sync: if the idle time was reset, force alarms to trigger (#70476) ...

The time between the idle reset and the IdleTimeWakeupHandler to be called is
indeterminate. Clients with an PositiveTransition or NegativeTransition alarm
on a low threshold may miss an alarm.

Work around this by keeping a reset flag for each device. When the
WakeupHandler triggers and the reset flag is set, we force a re-calculation of
everything and pretend the current idle time is zero. Immediately after is the
next calculation with the real idle time.

Relatively reproducible test case: Set up a XSyncNegativeTransition alarm for
a threshold of 1 ms. May trigger, may not.
