Add rte_eth_read_clock to read the raw clock of a device.
The main use is to get the device clock conversion co-efficients to be
able to translate the raw clock of the timestamp field of the pkt mbuf
to a local synced time value.
This function was missing to allow users to convert the Rx timestamp field
to real time without the complexity of the rte_timesync* facility. One can
derivate the clock frequency by calling twice read_clock and then keep a
common time base.
