The CONFIG_CLOCK_CONTROL and CONFIG_NRF_RTC_TIMER were
unconditionally selected when enabling any nRF SoC. But since
timers can be disabled in the kernel, depend instead on
CONFIG_SYS_CLOCK_EXISTS, which is only defined when kernel
timer support is included.
Note that ideally we would enable CONFIG_NRF_RTC_TIMER only, and
that would select CONFIG_CLOCK_CONTROL (on which the RTC timer
depends) but there is a circular Kconfig dependency that prevents
us from doing so.

This reverts commit bd24b31139.
While the test case failure described in #14186 is associated with the
cycle-based busy-wait implementation, that test is fragile, and fails
less frequently once the incongruence between ticks-per-second and the
32 KiHz RTC clock are resolved. It also assumes that the system clock
is more stable than the infrastructure underlying the the busy-wait
implementation, which is not necessarily true.
The gross inaccuracies in the standard busy-wait on Nordic described in
issue #11626 justify restoring the custom solution.
As this applies to all Nordic devices, move the setting to the top-level
Kconfig.defconfig.

The default system clock on all Nordic devices is based on a 32 KiHz
(2^15 Hz) timer. Scheduling ticks requires that deadlines be specified
with a timer counter that aligns to a system clock. With the Zephyr
default 100 clocks-per-sec configuration this results in 100 ticks every
32700 ticks of the cycle timer. This reveals two problems:
* The uptime clock misrepresents elapsed time because it runs 0.208%
(68/32768) faster than the best available clock;
* Calculation of timer counter compare values often requires an integer
division and multiply operation to produce a value that's a multiple
of clock-ticks-per-second.
Integer division on the Cortex-M1 nRF51 is done in software with a
(value-dependent) algorithm with a non-constant runtime that can be
significant. This can produce missed Bluetooth deadlines as discussed
in upstream #14577 and others.
By changing the default divisor to one that evenly divides the 2^15
clock rate the time interrupts are disabled to manage timers is
significantly reduced, as is the error between uptime and real time. Do
this at the top level, moving SYS_CLOCK_HW_CYCLES_PER_SEC there as well
since the two parameters are related.
Note that the central_hr configuration described in upstream #13610 does
not distinguish latency due to timer management from other
irq_block/spinlock regions, and the maximum observed latency will still
exceed the nominal 10 us allowed maximum. However this does occur
much less frequently than changing the timer deadline which can happen
multiple times per tick.

Redefining the config will not let another (out-of-source) driver be
chosen instead of the default. The driver is practically forced by the
soc settings. This commit moves default settings from soc/arm/nordic_nrf
into the drivers themselves.

SPI devices almost always require chip selects, which are configured
through GPIOs. Make the GPIO infrastructure available by default when
SPI is enabled.

Make the following nRF peripheral drivers:
- ADC
- GPIO
- I2C
- SPI
- UART
- USB_DEVICE
enabled by default so that users do not need to explicitly enable them
in their applications after choosing an nRF SoC as the build target.
Kconfig options enabling these drivers depend on both a given hardware
feature (e.g. I2C) and an nRF family SoC selected, so effectively they
will be automatically enabled only when it is adequate (and in most
cases these drivers are the only option for a given hardware feature
on nRF SoCs).

Implementations of both flavors of serial drivers for Nordic SoCs
are no longer dependent on the gpio driver. Remove the dependency
from Kconfig.

This can help find unused symbols. Those end up without a type if
'default' is used instead of 'def_bool', which generates a warning.
Search for "Kconfig.defconfig" in
https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/application/kconfig-tips.html for
a longer explanation.
Keep the 'def_bool' for the following symbols, which seem to be
deliberately defined only in Kconfig.defconfig files:
- ALTERA_AVALON_I2C
- ALTERA_AVALON_MSGDMA
- ALTERA_AVALON_PIO
- ALTERA_AVALON_QSPI
- ALTERA_AVALON_SYSID
- CLOCK_CONTROL_IMX_CCM
- CPU_EM4_DMIPS
- CPU_EM4_FPUDA
- CPU_EM4_FPUS
- FP_FPU_DA
- I2C_GECKO

level as boards and architectures allowing both SoCs and boards to be
maintained outside the tree.
