Kernel: Use a dedicated thread state for wait-queued threads

Instead of using the generic block mechanism, wait-queued threads now
go into the special Queued state.

This fixes an issue where signal dispatch would unblock a wait-queued
thread (because signal dispatch unblocks blocked threads) and cause
confusion since the thread only expected to be awoken by the queue.
