time: Add timekeeping snapshot code capturing system time and counter
In the current timekeeping code there isn't any interface to atomically capture the current relationship between the system counter and system time. ktime_get_snapshot() returns this triple (counter, monotonic raw, realtime) in the system_time_snapshot struct.
