Add support for timeconting in userland.

This diff exposes parts of clock_gettime(2) and gettimeofday(2) to
userland via libc eliberating processes from the need for a context
switch everytime they want to count the passage of time.

If a timecounter clock can be exposed to userland than it needs to set
its tc_user member to a non-zero value. Tested with one or multiple
counters per architecture.

The timing data is shared through a pointer found in the new ELF
auxiliary vector AUX_openbsd_timekeep containing timehands information
that is frequently updated by the kernel.

Timing differences between the last kernel update and the current time
are adjusted in userland by the tc_get_timecount() function inside the
MD usertc.c file.

This permits a much more responsive environment, quite visible in
browsers, office programs and gaming (apparently one is are able to fly
in Minecraft now).

Tested by robert@, sthen@, naddy@, kmos@, phessler@, and many others!

permute15() should be static. Not cranking libc now, because it is

add an inner xor to make prediction attacks against the ids harder, due
to an attack pointed out by David Wagner.

#if __STDC__ --> #ifdef __STDC__

Be more careful about possible type promotion

skipped too many ids

change time() to gettimeofday()
