dahdi: Use monotonic clock for coretimer.

Browse Source 
DAHDI internal timing currently uses the "wall clock" to determine how much
time is passing for mixing and timers. When the wall time changes, like when
the system time is set via ntp or date, DAHDI currently will display a
"Detected time shift" message since it believes there is too much audio to
mix. There may also be audio problems if the wall time is shifting
occasionally due to slewing of the clock.

Now use a monotonic clock to determine how much real-time has passed for
timing purposes. This makes DAHDI insensitive to any changes in the wall time
on the system.

This only applies when using DAHDI's internal timer like when there are not
any telphony cards installed. There are still potential audio problems if the
platform is unable to accurately determine the passage of time.
