Research direction

Start by locating multiprocessing.JoinableQueue.join and reviewing the historical JoinableQueue_with_timeout.patch linked in the issue. Check the existing multiprocessing tests before deciding how timeout behavior should be covered. Done means JoinableQueue.join supports the requested timeout behavior with tests that define the expected result.
