Rename timer driver API functions to be consistent. ADD DOCS TO THE
HEADER so implementations understand what the requirements are.
Remove some unused functions that don't need declarations here.
Also removes the per-platform #if's around the power control callback
in favor of a weak-linked noop function in the driver initialization
(adds a few bytes of code to default platforms -- we'll live, I
think).

The existing API had two almost identical functions: _set_time() and
_timer_idle_enter(). Both simply instruct the timer driver to set the
next timer interrupt expiration appropriately so that the call to
z_clock_announce() will be made at the requested number of ticks. On
most/all hardware, these should be implementable identically.
Unfortunately because they are specified differently, existing drivers
have implemented them in parallel.
Specify a new, unified, z_clock_set_timeout(). Document it clearly
for implementors. And provide a shim layer for legacy drivers that
will continue to use the old functions.
Note that this patch fixes an existing bug found by inspection: the
old call to _set_time() out of z_clock_announce() failed to test for
the "wait forever" case in the situation where clock_always_on is
true, meaning that a system that reached this point and then never set
another timeout would freeze its uptime clock incorrectly.

There were three separate "announce ticks" entry points exposed for
use by drivers. Unify them to just a single z_clock_announce()
function, making the "final" tick announcement the business of the
driver only, not the kernel.
Note the oddness with "_sys_idle_elapsed_ticks": this was a global
variable exposed by the kernel. But it was never actually used by the
kernel. It was updated and inspected only within the timer drivers,
and only so that it could be passed back to the kernel as the default
(actually hidden) argument to the announce function. Break this false
dependency by putting this variable into each timer driver
individually.

This was another "global variable" API. Give it function syntax too.
Also add a warning, because on nRF devices (at least) the cycle clock
runs in kHz and is too slow to give a precise answer here.

This patch provides support needed to get timing related
information from nios2 based SOC.

Remove RTOS-2676 from the comment, this is a jira issue number that was
used with zephyr in the past and not available anywhere for reference.

Delete the native timer soft IP driver as we will be reusing
the Altera's HAL drivers for most of the soft IP's.
Add shim driver support for Altera timer system clock soft IP.
