test: fix flaky test-regress-nodejsGH-897
Even after being moved to `sequential` in 1ce05ad, `test-regress-nodejsGH-897` still was occasionally flaky on Raspberry Pi devices on CI. The test is especially sensitive to resource constraints. It failed reliably on my laptop if I moved it to `parallel` and ran 32 competing node test processes. Even for a flaky test, that's unusually low. I typically don't see problems, even for flaky tests, until I get up to around four times that number. On a Raspberry Pi, of course, that sensitivity to resource constraints will manifest much sooner. This change checks the order of timers firing, rather than the duration before a timer is fired. This eliminates the sensitivity to resource constraints. The test can now be moved back to `parallel`. I am able to run many copies of the test simultaneously without seeing test failures. Fixes: nodejs#10073
