Add a PTP clock driver called ptp_vmw, for guests running on VMware ESXi hypervisor. The driver attaches to a VMware virtual device called "precision clock" that provides a mechanism for querying host system time. Similar to existing virtual PTP clock drivers (e.g. ptp_kvm), ptp_vmw utilizes the kernel's PTP hardware clock API to implement a clock device that can be used as a reference in Chrony for synchronizing guest time with host. The driver is only applicable to x86 guests running in VMware virtual machines with precision clock virtual device present. It uses a VMware specific hypercall mechanism to read time from the device.
