[newlib-cygwin] Add a place for a driver to report rx timestamps

    Add a place for a driver to report rx timestamps
    
    in nanoseconds from boot for the received packets.
    
    The rcv_tstmp field overlaps the place of Ln header length indicators,
    not used by received packets.  The basic pkthdr rearrangement change
    in sys/mbuf.h was provided by gallatin.
    
    There are two accompanying M_ flags: M_TSTMP means that there is the
    timestamp (and it was generated by hardware).
    
    Another flag M_TSTMP_HPREC indicates that the timestamp is
    high-precision.  Practically M_TSTMP_HPREC means that hardware
    provided additional precision comparing with the stamps when the flag
    is not set.  E.g., for ConnectX all packets are stamped by hardware
    when PCIe transaction to write out the completion descriptor is
    performed, but PTP packet are stamped on port.  For Intel cards, when
    PTP assist is enabled, only PTP packets are stamped in the limited
    number of registers, so if Intel cards ever start support this
    mechanism, they would always set M_TSTMP | M_TSTMP_HPREC if hardware
    timestamp is present for the given packet.
    
    Add IFCAP_HWRXTSTMP interface capability to indicate the support for
    hardware rx timestamping, and ifconfig(8) command to toggle it.
