The timebase is allocated during spapr_realize_vcpu() and it's not
freed. This results in memory leaks when doing vcpu unplugs:

This patch adds a cpu_ppc_tb_free() helper in hw/ppc/ppc.c to allow us
to free the timebase. This leak is then solved by calling
cpu_ppc_tb_free() in spapr_unrealize_vcpu().
