The value of CCOUNT special register is calculated as time elapsed
since CCOUNT == 0 multiplied by the core frequency. In icount mode time
increment between consecutive instructions that don't involve time
warps is constant, but unless the result of multiplication of this
constant by the core frequency is a whole number the CCOUNT increment
between these instructions may not be constant. E.g. with icount=7 each
instruction takes 128ns, with core clock of 10MHz CCOUNT values for
consecutive instructions are:
502: (128 * 502 * 10000000) / 1000000000 = 642.56
503: (128 * 503 * 10000000) / 1000000000 = 643.84
504: (128 * 504 * 10000000) / 1000000000 = 645.12
I.e.the CCOUNT increments depend on the absolute time. This results in
varying CCOUNT differences for consecutive instructions in tests that
involve time warps and don't set CCOUNT explicitly.
Change frequency of the core used in tests so that clock cycle takes
exactly 64ns. Change icount power used in tests to 6, so that each
instruction takes exactly 1 clock cycle. With these changes CCOUNT
increments only depend on the number of executed instructions and that's
what timer tests expect, so they work correctly.

We've currently got 18 architectures in QEMU, and thus 18 target-xxx
folders in the root folder of the QEMU source tree. More architectures
(e.g. RISC-V, AVR) are likely to be included soon, too, so the main
folder of the QEMU sources slowly gets quite overcrowded with the
target-xxx folders.
To disburden the main folder a little bit, let's move the target-xxx
folders into a dedicated target/ folder, so that target-xxx/ simply
becomes target/xxx/ instead.
