arm: Move system_clock_scale to armv7m_systick.h
The system_clock_scale global is used only by the armv7m systick device; move the extern declaration to the armv7m_systick.h header, and expand the comment to explain what it is and that it should ideally be replaced with a different approach.

|

* and (b) the property needs to be modifiable after realize, because
|

* the stellaris board uses this to implement the behaviour where the
|

* guest can reprogram the PLL registers to downclock the CPU, and the
|
||||
* systick device needs to react accordingly. Possibly this should
|
||||
* be deferred until we have a good API for modelling clock trees.
