sched: add optional support for CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK



this replaces the rq->clock stuff (and possibly cpu_clock()).

 - architectures that have an 'imperfect' hardware clock can set
   CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK

 - the 'jiffie' window might be superfulous when we update tick_gtod
   before the __update_sched_clock() call in sched_clock_tick()

 - cpu_clock() might be implemented as:

     sched_clock_cpu(smp_processor_id())

   if the accuracy proves good enough - how far can TSC drift in a
   single jiffie when considering the filtering and idle hooks?
