Fix HIP_SYNC_NULL_STREAM=0 mode.

- Fix null-stream sync
- hipStreamDestroy of null stream returns hipErrorInvalidResourceHandle
- Update documentation.
- Add tests for null stream sync, hipEventElapsedTime.
- Rename internal enum hipEventStatusRecorded to hipEventStatusComplete
- refactor hipStreamWaitEvent to streamline control-flow
