Account for very large repaint window misses

At the bottom of weston_output_finish_frame(), code exists to account
for flips which have missed the repaint window, by shifting them to lock
on to the next repaint window rather than repainting immediately.

This code only accounted for flips which missed their target by one
repaint window. If they miss by multiples of the repaint window, adjust
them until the next repaint timestamp is in the future. This will only
happen in fairly extreme situations, such as Weston being scheduled out
for a punitively long period of time. Nevertheless, try to help recovery
by still aiming for more predictable timings.
