kern: add boot-time clock, use it for time stampsHEADmaster

The kernel keeps track of task and thread creation times by saving a
time stamp.  Previously, the real-time clock was used for this.  When
the real-time clock is changed, however, the reference frame for the
time stamps is lost.  This surfaced in Hurd systems reporting
spuriously long uptimes.

Fix this by creating a boot-time clock and use it as reference frame
for the time stamps.

* kern/mach_clock.c (clock_boottime_offset): Create clock by keeping
track of the offset from the real-time.
(clock_boottime_update): New function.
(record_time_stamp): Use the boot-time clock for time stamps.
(read_time_stamp): New function to convert it back to real-time.
(host_set_time): Call `clock_boottime_update'.
* kern/mach_clock.h (record_time_stamp): Amend comment.
(read_time_stamp): New declaration.
* kern/task.c (task_info): Use `read_time_stamp'.
* kern/thread.c (thread_info): Likewise.
