timers: emit warning if delay is negative or NaN

Emit process warning once per process when delay is a negative number or
not a number, this will prevent unexpected behaviour caused by invalid
`delay` also keep the consistency of the behaviour and warning message
for `TIMEOUT_MAX` number As the negative number is invalid delay will be
set to 1.
