rtla: Add --house-keeping option

To avoid having rtla interfering with the measurement threads, add an
option for the user to set the CPUs in which rtla should run. For
instance:

  # rtla timerlat top -H 0 -c 1-7

Will place rtla in the CPU 0, while running the measurement threads in
the CPU 1-7.
