The armv7m systick timer is a 24-bit decrementing, wrap-on-zero,
clear-on-write counter. Our current implementation has various
bugs and dubious workarounds in it (for instance see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1872237).
We have an implementation of a simple decrementing counter
and we put a lot of effort into making sure it handles the
interesting corner cases (like "spend a cycle at 0 before
reloading") -- ptimer.
Rewrite the systick timer to use a ptimer rather than
a raw QEMU timer.
Unfortunately this is a migration compatibility break,
which will affect all M-profile boards.
Among other bugs, this fixes
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1872237 :
now writes to SYST_CVR when the timer is enabled correctly
do nothing; when the timer is enabled via SYST_CSR.ENABLE,
the ptimer code will (because of POLICY_NO_IMMEDIATE_RELOAD)
arrange that after one timer tick the counter is reloaded
from SYST_RVR and then counts down from there, as the
architecture requires.

It is the responsibility of board code for an armv7m system to set
system_clock_scale appropriately for the CPU speed of the core.
If it forgets to do this, then QEMU will hang if the guest tries
to use the systick timer in the "tick at the CPU clock frequency" mode.
We forgot that in a couple of our boards (see commits ce4f70e81e,
e7e5a9595a). Add an assertion in the systick reset method so
we don't let any new boards in with the same bug.

There is a memory leak when we call 'device_list_properties' with typename = armv7m_systick. It's easy to reproduce as follow:
virsh qemu-monitor-command vm1 --pretty '{"execute": "device-list-properties", "arguments": {"typename": "armv7m_systick"}}'
This patch delay timer_new to fix this memleaks.

In my "build everything" tree, changing migration/vmstate.h triggers a
recompile of some 2700 out of 6600 objects (not counting tests and
objects that don't depend on qemu/osdep.h).
hw/hw.h supposedly includes it for convenience. Several other headers
include it just to get VMStateDescription. The previous commit made
that unnecessary.
Include migration/vmstate.h only where it's still needed. Touching it
now recompiles only some 1600 objects.

hw/hw.h supposedly includes it for convenience. Several other headers

Move the qemu_irq and qemu_irq_handler typedefs from hw/irq.h to
qemu/typedefs.h, and then include hw/irq.h only where it's still
needed. Touching it now recompiles only some 500 objects.

Like most of the v7M memory mapped system registers, the systick
registers are accessible to privileged code only and user accesses
must generate a BusFault. We implement that for registers in
the NVIC proper already, but missed it for systick since we
implement it as a separate device. Correct the omission.

The SysTick timer isn't really part of the NVIC proper;
we just modelled it that way back when we couldn't
easily have devices that only occupied a small chunk
of a memory region. Split it out into its own device.
