Unfortunately, my build fix for when time travel mode isn't
enabled broke time travel mode, because I forgot that we need
to use the timer time after the timer has been marked disabled,
and thus need to leave the time stored instead of zeroing it.

Fix that by splitting the inline into two, so we can call only
the _mode() one in the relevant code path.

Sometimes it can be useful to run with "time travel" inside the
UML instance, for example for testing. For example, some tests
for the wireless subsystem and userspace are based on hwsim, a
virtual wireless adapter. Some tests can take a long time to
run because they e.g. wait for 120 seconds to elapse for some
regulatory checks. This obviously goes faster if it need not
actually wait that long, but time inside the test environment
just "bumps up" when there's nothing to do.

Add CONFIG_UML_TIME_TRAVEL_SUPPORT to enable code to support
such modes at runtime, selected on the command line:
 * just "time-travel", in which time inside the UML instance
   can move faster than real time, if there's nothing to do
 * "time-travel=inf-cpu" in which time also moves slower and
   any CPU processing takes no time at all, which allows to
   implement consistent behaviour regardless of host CPU load
   (or speed) or debug overhead.

An additional "time-travel-start=&lt;seconds&gt;" parameter is also
supported in this case to start the wall clock at this time
(in unix epoch).

With this enabled, the test mentioned above goes from a runtime
of about 140 seconds (with startup overhead and all) to being
CPU bound and finishing in 15 seconds (on my slow laptop).

os_timer_one_shot() gets passed a value "unsigned long delta",
so must not have an "int ticks" as that actually ends up being
-1, and thus triggering a timer over and over again.

reenable_fd has been a NOP since the introduction of the EPOLL
based interrupt controller.
reenable_channel() is no longer needed as the flow control is
now handled via the write IRQs on the channel.

Support for DISCARD and WRITE_ZEROES in the ubd driver using
fallocate.

DISCARD is enabled by default and can be disabled using a new
UBD command line flag.

If the underlying fs on which the UBD image is stored does not
support DISCARD the support for both DISCARD and WRITE_ZEROES
is turned off.
