timerfd_create: accept CLOCK_UPTIME/CLOCK_BOOTTIME

This is a common use case when using timerfd_create to actually use
it with CLOCK_BOOTTIME on linux which is CLOCK_UPTIME for us.

Note that currently on freebsd CLOCK_BOOTTIME is CLOCK_UPTIME, but the
semantic is supposed to be different, this has to be fixed later.

Tested with the fnott notification software

timerfd: Define a locking regime

Define a locking regime for the members of struct timerfd and document
it so future code can follow the standard. The lock legend can be found
in a comment above struct timerfd.

Additionally,
* Add assertions based on locking regime.
* Fill kn_data with the expiration count when EVFILT_READ is triggered.
* Report st_ctim for stat(2).
* Check if file has f_type == DTYPE_TIMERFD before assigning timerfd
pointer to f_data.

Move the timerfd impelemntation from linux compat code to sys/kern. Use
it to implement the new system calls for timerfd. Add a hook to kern_tc
to allow timerfd to know when the system time has stepped. Add kqueue
support to timerfd. Adjust a few names to be less Linux centric.
