general infrastructure for boot time calculation

I am proposing a mechanism here that will allow us to have a better idea about
how much time do we spend booting, and also how much time each of the pieces
contribute to. For that, we need to be able to get time stamps really early, in
places where tracepoints may not be available, and a clock most definitely
won't.

With my proposal, one should be able to register events. After the system
boots, we will calculate the total time since the first event, as well as the
delta since the last event. If the first event is early enough, that should
produce a very good picture about our boot time.
