 cpukit/jffs2: Avoid use of off-chain semantics

 This reworks the JFFS2 delayed work queue to avoid use of
 on-chain/off-chain semantics since they vary in behavior under
 RTEMS_DEBUG and are not guaranteed to be safe to use in SMP systems.
 This adds all delayed work structs to the chain on FS init and does not
 remove them until umount.

 Updates #4956
