workqueue: separate out drain_workqueue() from destroy_workqueue()

There are users which want to drain workqueues without destroying it.
Separate out drain functionality from destroy_workqueue() into
drain_workqueue() and make it accessible to workqueue users.

To guarantee forward-progress, only chain queueing is allowed while
drain is in progress.  If a new work item which isn't chained from the
running or pending work items is queued while draining is in progress,
WARN_ON_ONCE() is triggered.
