perf counters: implement PERF_COUNT_TASK_CLOCK
Impact: add new perf-counter type
The 'task clock' counter counts the amount of time a task is executing,
in nanoseconds. It stops ticking when a task is scheduled out either due
to it blocking, sleeping or it being preempted.
This counter type is a Linux kernel based abstraction, it is available
even if the hardware does not support native hardware performance counters.
