Rewritten Xtensa CCOUNT driver along the lines of all the other new
drivers. The new API permits much smaller code.
Notably: The Xtensa counter is a 32 bit up-counter with a comparator
register. It's in some sense the archetype of this kind of timer as
it's the simplest of the bunch (everything else has quirks: NRF is
very slow and 24 bit, HPET has a runtime frequency detection, RISC-V
is 64 bit...). I should have written this one first.
Note also that this includes a blacklist of the xtensa architecture on
the tests/driver/ipm test. I'm getting spurious failures there where
a k_sem_take() call with a non-zero timeout is being made out of the
console output code in interrupt context. This seems to have nothing
to do with the timer; I suspect it's because the old timer drivers
would (incorrectly!) call z_clock_announce() in non-interrupt context
in some contexts (e.g. "expiring really soon"). Apparently this test
(or something in the IPM or Xtensa console code) was somehow relying
on that on Xtensa. But IPM is a Quark thing and there's no particular
reason to run this test there.

This test was written with an outrageously long timeout of 25 seconds.
That blows right through the 32 bit cycle counter on qemu_cortex_m3[1]
and produces an essentially random delay instead of the desired
number, causing a hang with the new SysTick driver in tickless mode.
Push the number down so it doesn't overflow. The root cause, though,
is that k_busy_wait() can take arguments it can't handle. It ought to
have an outer loop or something so that it can spin for INT_MAX
milliseconds correctly.

When TICKLESS_KERNEL is enabled, the current time in ticks is based on

Qemu doesn't like tickless. By default[1] it tries to be realtime as
vied by the host CPU -- presenting read values from hardware cycle
counters and interrupt timings at the appropriate real world clock
times according to whatever the simulated counter frequency is. But
when the host system is loaded, there is always the problem that the
qemu process might not see physical CPU time for large chunks of time
(i.e. a host OS scheduling quantum -- generally about the same size as
guest ticks!) leading to lost cycles.
When those timer interrupts are delivered by the emulated hardware at
fixed frequencies without software intervention, that's not so bad:
the work the guest has to do after the interrupt generally happens
synchronously (because the qemu process has just started running) and
nothing notices the dropout.
But with tickless, the interrupts need to be explicitly programmed by
guest software! That means the driver needs to be sure it's going to
get some real CPU time within some small fraction of a Zephyr tick of
the right time, otherwise the computations get wonky.
The end result is that qemu tends to work with tickless well on an
unloaded/idle run, but not in situations (like sanitycheck) where it
needs to content with other processes for host CPU.
So, add a flag that drivers can use to "fake" tickless behavior when
run under qemu (only), and enable it (only!) for the small handful of
tests that are having trouble.
[1] There is an -icount feature to implement proper cycle counting at
the expense of real-world-time correspondence. Maybe someday we might
get it to work for us.

In the POSIX architecture, with the inf_clock "SOC", time does
not pass while the CPU is running. Tests that require time to pass
while busy waiting should call k_busy_wait() or in some other way
set the CPU to idle. This test was setting the CPU to idle while
waiting for the next time slice. This is ok if the system tick
(timer) is active and awaking the CPU every system tick period.
But when configured in tickless mode that is not the case, and the
CPU was set to sleep for an indefinite amount of time.
This commit fixes it by using k_busy_wait(a few microseconds) inside
that busy wait loop instead.

When using an IDE (e.g. Eclipse, Qt Creator), the project name gets

defeats this functionality.

too much of what is already represented in the path. This is done by
using the name of the directory the relevant CMakeLists.txt file is

This test was written to assume that on idle the CPU would wake up on
the next tick boundary because of the timer interrupt. No such
interrupt arrives in tickless mode and it hangs forever.
A more whiteboxy test involving setting a clock timout will have to be
written for this feature if we want to keep it on tickless systems.
Alternatively we could move this test out of tests/kernel/context and
always disable tickless.

The theory behind this test seems to be that taking an IRQ lock should
prevent the advance of the kernel's tick counter. That works on
traditional timers only. In tickless mode the timer hardware/driver
is expected to be able to give us an answer for time independent of
interrupt delivery, so the test fails spuriously. The "bug" detected
is a feature of tickless!

If the idle code was detecting that it needed to sleep for less than
CONFIG_SYS_TICKLESS_IDLE_THRESH, then it would never call
z_clock_set_timeout() at all, which means that the system would never
wake up unless it already had a timeout scheduled! Apparently we
lacked a test case to detect this condition.
Honestly this seems like a crazy feature to me. There's no benefit in
delivering needless tick announcements. If the system has the
capacity to enter deeper sleep for long timeouts, that's already
exposed via the PM APIs, the timer subsystem needn't be involved.
But... we actually have a test (tickless_concept) that looks at this,
so support it for now and consider deprecation later.

The system tick count is a 64 bit quantity that gets updated from
interrupt context, meaning that it's dangerously non-atomic and has to
be locked. The core kernel clock code did this right.
But the value was also exposed to the rest of the universe as a global
variable, and virtually nothing else was doing this correctly. Even
in the timer ISRs themselves, the interrupts may be themselves
preempted (most of our architectures support nested interrupts) by
code that wants to set timeouts and inspect system uptime.
Define a z_tick_{get,set}() API, eliminate the old variable, and make
sure everyone uses the right mechanism.

The existing API defined sys_clock_{hw_cycles,ticks}_per_sec as simple
"variables" to be shared, except that they were only real storage in
certain modes (the HPET driver, basically) and everywhere else they
were a build constant.
Properly, these should be an API defined by the timer driver (who
controls those rates) and consumed by the clock subsystem. So give
them function syntax as a stepping stone to get there.
Note that this also removes the deprecated variable
_sys_clock_us_per_tick rather than give it the same treatment.

All 'source's in Zephyr assume that the Zephyr root directory is used as
the srctree as well, and would break otherwise.
