score: Add CPU counter support

Add a CPU counter interface to allow access to a free-running counter.
It is useful to measure short time intervals.  This can be used for
example to enable profiling of critical low-level functions.

Add two busy wait functions rtems_counter_delay_ticks() and
rtems_counter_delay_nanoseconds() implemented via the CPU counter.
