This commit removes redundant reads of RTC_COUNTER register
propagating optimizations made in the k_cycle_get_32() function.
Signed-off-by: Piotr Zięcik <piotr.ziecik@nordicsemi.no>
The previous implementation of _timer_cycle_get_32() (which is directly
mapped to k_cycle_get_32()) taken from 87 to 132 cycles. As result it
was too heavy for using it as source of time for logger.
This commit makes this function faster by removing redundant access
to the RTC register (each access consumed 28 CPU cycles) as well as
loop, which made this call non-deterministic.
After these changes the k_cycle_get_32() needs only 50-52 cycles
in to calculate 32-bit timestamp.

In case of tickless kernel, k_busy_wait() calls __enable_sys_clock()
which in turn calls _set_time() with maximum RTC counter programmable
value. This will set the expected_sys_ticks to maximum tick value even
though there is no explicit timeout is requested from the kernel or from
an application. In this scenario, if an app calls k_sleep() which in
turn calls _add_timeout() which will adjust timeout value as per the
elapsed program time which based on incorrectly set expected_sys_ticks.
To fix this issue, we should not set the expected_sys_ticks in case
of __enable_sys_clock() as it just requests to run the counter but
a timeout event request.

The nrf_rtc_timer used own method to calculate number of timer cycles
per tick. As the result value was different than the one used by
the kernel, the reported time was incorrect.
This commit fixes the problem described above by using global

nrf SOC uses nrf rtc timer (not sys tick), which is 32kHz,
whereas CPU runs at higher speed (nrf52 runs at 64MHz).
So 32Khz is too slow to measure critical kernel parameters.
This patch does :-
1. Add support for nrf SOC for timing_info benchmarking.
2. Uses SOC timer to measure kernel parameters.

Adds event based scheduling logic to the kernel. Updates
management of timeouts, timers, idling etc. based on
time tracked at events rather than periodic ticks. Provides
interfaces for timers to announce and get next timer expiry
based on kernel scheduling decisions involving time slicing
of threads, timeouts and idling. Uses wall time units instead
of ticks in all scheduling activities.
The implementation involves changes in the following areas
1. Management of time in wall units like ms/us instead of ticks
The existing implementation already had an option to configure
number of ticks in a second. The new implementation builds on
top of that feature and provides option to set the size of the
scheduling granurality to mili seconds or micro seconds. This
allows most of the current implementation to be reused. Due to
this re-use and co-existence with tick based kernel, the names
of variables may contain the word "tick". However, in the
tickless kernel implementation, it represents the currently
configured time unit, which would be be mili seconds or
micro seconds. The APIs that take time as a parameter are not
impacted and they continue to pass time in mili seconds.
2. Timers would not be programmed in periodic mode
generating ticks. Instead they would be programmed in one
shot mode to generate events at the time the kernel scheduler
needs to gain control for its scheduling activities like
timers, timeouts, time slicing, idling etc.
3. The scheduler provides interfaces that the timer drivers
use to announce elapsed time and get the next time the scheduler
needs a timer event. It is possible that the scheduler may not
need another timer event, in which case the system would wait
for a non-timer event to wake it up if it is idling.
4. New APIs are defined to be implemented by timer drivers. Also
they need to handler timer events differently. These changes
have been done in the HPET timer driver. In future other timers
that support tickles kernel should implement these APIs as well.
These APIs are to re-program the timer, update and announce
elapsed time.
5. Philosopher and timer_api applications have been enabled to
test tickless kernel. Separate configuration files are created
which define the necessary CONFIG flags. Run these apps using
following command
make pristine && make BOARD=qemu_x86 CONF_FILE=prj_tickless.conf qemu

This is a reworked version of the previous RTC driver. The main
changed is related to the handling _timer_idle_exit() on non-RTC
wake-ups. The previous version didn't announce the elapsed time
to the kernel in _timer_idle_exit(). Additionally, the driver now
makes sure never to announce more idle ticks than the kernel asked
for, since the kernel does not handle negative deltas in its timeout
queues.

The nRF RTC driver, which is used a system clock driver due to the lack
of SysTick hardware on the SoC, was using too much CPU time in its
_timer_idle_exit() implementation due to the use of 64-bit arithmetical
operations. This was causing the ISR wrapper to add excessive latency to
critical interrupts, causing BLE controller asserts.
This patch addresses the issue by using exclusively RTC ticks instead of
OS ticks, thus avoiding the necessity to convert during
_timer_idle_exit() calls, which are the most critical to interrupt
latency.
In addition the driver is now able to detect setting tick events in the
past due to it being interrupted by a higher priority context, and will
reschedule and trigger the ISR at the same time.
