posix-timers: Make them configurable

Browse source 
Some embedded systems have no use for them.  This removes about
25KB from the kernel binary size when configured out.

Corresponding syscalls are routed to a stub logging the attempt to
use those syscalls which should be enough of a clue if they were
disabled without proper consideration. They are: timer_create,
timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun, timer_settime, timer_delete,
clock_adjtime, setitimer, getitimer, alarm.

The clock_settime, clock_gettime, clock_getres and clock_nanosleep
syscalls are replaced by simple wrappers compatible with CLOCK_REALTIME,
CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only which should cover the vast
majority of use cases with very little code.

This includes native support for POSIX timers to the kernel.
Some embedded systems have no use for them and therefore they
can be configured out to reduce the size of the kernel image.
When this option is disabled, the following syscalls won't be
available: timer_create, timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun,
timer_settime, timer_delete, clock_adjtime, getitimer,
setitimer, alarm. Furthermore, the clock_settime, clock_gettime,
clock_getres and clock_nanosleep syscalls will be limited to
CLOCK_REALTIME, CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only.
If unsure say y.
