Do not timeout when WriteControl deadline is zero

A zero value for the Conn.WriteControl deadline specifies no timeout,
but the feature was implemented as a very long timeout (1000 hours).
This PR updates the code to use no timeout when the deadline is zero.

See the discussion in #895 for more details.
