    libpayload: honor TSC information under CONFIG_LP_TIMER_RDTSC
    
    When CONFIG_LP_TIMER_RDTSC is enabled honor the TSC information
    exported in the coreboot tables as the cpu_khz frequency. That
    allows get_cpu_speed() not to be called which currently relies
    on the 8254 PIT. As certain x86 platforms allow that device
    to be optional or turned off for power saving reasons, allow
    a path where get_cpu_speed() is no longer called. Additionally,
    this approach also allows the libpayload to not duplicate logic
    that already exists in coreboot.
    
    BUG=chrome-os-partner:50214
    BRANCH=glados
    TEST=Confirmed in payload TSC frequency is honored instead of
         using get_cpu_speed().
