timers: Add rb_init_node() to allow for stack allocated rb nodes

In cases where a timerqueue_node or some structure that utilizes
a timerqueue_node is allocated on the stack, gcc would give warnings
caused by the timerqueue_init()'s calling RB_CLEAR_NODE, which
self-references the nodes uninitialized data.

The solution is to create an rb_init_node() function that zeros
the rb_node structure out and then calls RB_CLEAR_NODE(), and
then call the new init function from timerqueue_init().
