Subject: client API: change mpv_wait_event() timeout semantics

Now a negative timeout mean an infinite timeout. This is similar to the
poll() system call. Apparently this is more intuitive and less confusing
than specifying a "very high" value as timeout if you want to wait
forever.

For callers that never pass negative timeouts, nothing changes.
