AArch64: Add hp-timing.h

Add hp-timing.h using the cntvct_el0 counter. Return timing in nanoseconds
so it is fully compatible with generic hp-timing. Don't set HP_TIMING_INLINE
in the dynamic linker since it adds unnecessary overheads and some ancient
kernels may not handle emulating cntcvt correctly. Currently cntvct_el0 is
only used for timing in the benchtests.
