Sunil V L bc7a78f41b lib/utils/cppc: Emulate REFERENCE_CTR and DELIVERED_CTR locally
Currently, REFERENCE_CTR and DELIVERED_CTR are always read by sending
an RPMI message to the controller. This does not scale well since
these registers are typically polled frequently by CPU frequency
governors.

The reference counter can be simply the TIME csr, so it can be read
locally without going over RPMI. If the fast channel is supported,
the delivered counter can also be emulated locally: the fast channel
exposes the current frequency, which is multiplied by the elapsed
TIME csr ticks since the last read to calculate the delivered
performance counter.

Sunil V L 6499c02254 lib/sbi/sbi_timer: Add sbi_timer_frequency() function
Drivers and other library code sometimes need the timer frequency
outside of lib/sbi/sbi_timer.c, but there is currently no accessor
for it. Add sbi_timer_frequency() to expose the frequency of the
registered timer device.
