    Fix race condition in Time.java

    Some of my test runs were occasionally failing with a NullPointerException 
on `backtype.storm.utils.Time.java:64`.
    
    After a bit of investigation, it seems there's a race condition here; if we 
disable simulating mode while a thread is currently sleeping, then when it 
wakes up it won't re-check if it's still in "simulating" mode, it'll try to 
remove the sleep time, and get the NPE.
