Allow machines to configure CNTFRQ via a property if the ARM core
supports the generic timer. This is necessary on e.g. the ASPEED AST2600
SoC where the generic timer clock is run at 800MHz or above.

CNTFRQ is a read-as-written co-processor register; the property sets the
register's initial value which is used during realize() to configure the
QEMUTimers that back the generic timers. Beyond that the firmware can to
do whatever it sees fit with the CNTFRQ register though changes to the
value will not be reflected in the timers' rate.

Peter - I think this addresses most of your feedback. I still reach into
the QEMUTimer to fetch out scale when adjusting the nexttick
calculation, but we no longer need to update the scale member and force
a recalculation of the period.

Disregard v3, I got distracted by some updates to the way ASPEED's u-boot configures
CNTFRQ and didn't test some relevant cases.

Sorry for the noise.
