icount-based record/replay uses qemu_clock_deadline_ns_all to measure
the period until vCPU may be interrupted.
This function takes in account the virtual timers, because they belong
to the virtual devices that may generate interrupt request or affect
the virtual machine state.
However, there are a subset of virtual timers, that are marked with
'external' flag. These do not change the virtual machine state and
only based on virtual clock. Calculating the deadling using the external
timers breaks the determinism, because they do not belong to the replayed
part of the virtual machine.
This patch fixes the deadline calculation for this case by adding
new parameter for skipping the external timers when it is needed.

Attributes are simple flags, associated with individual timers for their
whole lifetime. They intended to be used to mark individual timers for
special handling when they fire.
New/init functions family in timer interface updated and refactored (new
'attribute' argument added, timer_list replaced with timer_list_group+type
combinations, comments improved to avoid info duplication). Also existing
aio interface extended with attribute-enabled variants of functions,
which create/initialize timers.

This test provides its own mocks, so do not use the "standard"
stubs in libqemustub.a or the event loop implementation in
libqemuutil.a.
This is required on OS X, which otherwise brings in qemu-timer.o,
async.o and main-loop.o from libqemuutil.a.

1) ptimer-test is not a qtest---it runs the ptimer.c code directly in the
ptimer-test process
2) ptimer-test has its own stubs file, so there is no need to add more
stubs to stubs/vmstate.c

Ptimer is a generic countdown timer helper that is used by many timer
device models as well as by the QEMU core. Add QTests for the ptimer.
