The time granularity on windows is large enough that setting even an
implausibly small timeout still gives ConnectEx enough time to succeed
before the timeout expires. That causes TestDialTimeout to sometimes
flake, because it expects to be able to provoke a timeout using some
nonzero duration.
This change takes a two-pronged approach to address the problem:
1. We can set a deadline on the FD more aggressively. (If the Context
has already expired, or the deadline is already known, we can go ahead
and set it on the fd without waiting for a background goroutine to get
around to it.)
2. We can reintroduce a test hook to ensure that Dial takes a
measurable amount of time before it completes, so that setting an
implausibly short deadline sets that deadline in the past instead of
the future.
Together, these reduce the flake rate on a windows-amd64-longtest
gomote from around 1-in-10 to less than 1-in-2000.
For #62377.
