This test item has extremely high requirements for timing and can only
pass the test under specific conditions. The following situations will
lead to test failure:

    MainThread                  Thread1
        │
  pthread_create-------------------┐
        │                          │
 futex_cmp_requeue                 │
        │                     futex_wait
        │                          │

If the child thread is not waiting in the futex_wait function when the
main thread reaches the futex_cmp_requeue function, the test will fail.

This patch avoids this problem by checking whether the child thread is
in a sleeping state in the main thread.

v1->v2:
    1. Fix the issue of abnormal use of fscanf in the get_thread_state function
    2. Add timeout logic

v2->v3: 
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
    1. Use /proc/[pid]/wchan instead of /proc/[pid]/stat to check if a process 
has entered the sleep state
    2. Refactor part of the logic to facilitate code reuse.
v3->v4: 
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
    1. Add a new futex_thread.h file.
    2. Add a new function named futex_thread_destroy.
    3. Fix the issue that threads are not reclaimed in futex_requeue.
