timekeeping: Introduce read_boot_clock
Add the new function read_boot_clock to get the exact time the system
has been started. For architectures without support for exact boot
time a new weak function is added that returns 0. Use the exact boot
time to initialize wall_to_monotonic, or xtime if the read_boot_clock
returned 0.
