    viridian: unify time sources
    
    Currently, the time_ref_count enlightened time source maintains an offset
    such that time is frozen when the domain paused, but the reference_tsc
    enlightened time source does not. After migrate, the reference_tsc source
    may become invalidated (e.g. because of host cpu frequency mismatch) which
    will cause Windows to fall back to time_ref_count. Thus, the guest will
    observe a jump in time equivalent to the offset.
    
    This patch unifies the two enlightened time sources such that the same
    offset applies to both of them. Also, it's not really necessary to have
    two different functions to calculating a 10MHz counter value, time_now() and
    raw_trc_val(), so this patch removes the latter implementation. The
    unification also allows removal of the reference_tsc_valid flag.
    
    Whilst in the area, this patch also takes the opportunity to constify a few
    pointers which were missed in earlier patches.
