perf/x86: Add a native_perf_sched_clock_from_tsc()
PEBSv3 has a raw TSC time stamp in its memory buffer that later needs to to be converted to perf_clock. Add a native_sched_clock_from_tsc() that works the same as native_sched_clock(), but starts with an already given TSC value. Paravirt is ignored, it will just get the native clock. But there isn't a para virtualized PEBS anyway.
