With this change, we can typically avoid an extra heap allocation when
calling AddAfter with a positive duration (which causes the creation of
a waitFor object). This is because workqueues are typically used with
string keys, and casting a string (or more generally, non-pointer types)
to an `interface{}` will cause an heap escape / allocation.
Ater this change, there is no longer any usage of `type t interface{}`,
which was creating some confusion after the switch to generics in the
workqueue package.

This change adds a generic version of the various workqueue types while
retaining compatibility for the existing exported symbols and constructors.
The generic variants are prefixed with `Typed` and the existing ones are
marked as deprecated to nudge people to transition without breaking
them.
