context: eliminate arbitrary timeouts in examples

ExampleWithDeadline and ExampleWithTimeout used an arbitrary 1-second
timeout for a “blocked” select case, which could fail if the test
goroutine happens to be descheduled for over a second, or perhaps if
an NTP synchronization happens to jump by a second at just the right
time.

Either case is plausible, especially on a heavily-loaded or slow
machine (as is often the case for builders for unusual ports).

Instead of an arbitrary timeout, use a “ready” channel that is never
actually ready.

Fixes #57594.
