Add raw1394_read_cycle_timer_and_clock() API
This is an extension relative to raw1394_read_cycle_timer().
It lets the client choose a system clock other than CLOCK_REALTIME.
Use case: http://subversion.ffado.org/ticket/242
The underlying ioctl supports reading the system clock with nanoseconds
resolution. The new libraw1394 call sticks with microseconds resolution
though. This makes transition from (or parallel use with)
raw1394_read_cycle_timer() easier. Besides, the call itself takes longer
than a microsecond, primarily due to a costly MMIO read (on many
controllers even three or more MMIO reads).
Unit tests with CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW are added to
testlibraw as well.
