vCPU execution should be suspended when new BH is scheduled.
This is needed to avoid guest timeouts caused by the long cycles
of the execution. In replay mode execution may hang when
vCPU sleeps and block event comes to the queue.
This patch adds notification which wakes up vCPU or interrupts
execution of guest code.

The new interface starts unused, will start being used by the
next patches.
It provides methods for each accelerator to start a vcpu, kick a vcpu,
synchronize state, get cpu virtual clock and elapsed ticks.
In qemu_wait_io_event, make it clear that APC is used only for HAX
on Windows.

refactoring of cpus.c continues with cpu timer state extraction.
cpu-timers: responsible for the softmmu cpu timers state,
including cpu clocks and ticks.
icount: counts the TCG instructions executed. As such it is specific to
the TCG accelerator. Therefore, it is built only under CONFIG_TCG.
One complication is due to qtest, which uses an icount field to warp time
as part of qtest (qtest_clock_warp).
In order to solve this problem, provide a separate counter for qtest.
This requires fixing assumptions scattered in the code that
qtest_enabled() implies icount_enabled(), checking each specific case.
