Merge #16117: util: Replace boost sleep with std sleep

fae86c38bc util: Remove unused MilliSleep (MarcoFalke)
fa9af06d91 scripted-diff: Replace MilliSleep with UninterruptibleSleep (MarcoFalke)
fa4620be78 util: Add UnintrruptibleSleep (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  We don't use the interruptible feature of boost's sleep anywhere, so replace it with the sleep in `std::thread`

ACKs for top commit:
  ajtowns:
    ACK fae86c38bc quick code review
  practicalswift:
    ACK fae86c38bc -- patch looks correct
  sipa:
    Concept and code review ACK fae86c38bc
  fanquake:
    ACK fae86c38bc - note that an instance of `DHAVE_WORKING_BOOST_SLEEP_FOR` was missed in the [linter](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/test/lint/extended-lint-cppcheck.sh#L69), but that can be cleaned up later.
