In glibc 2.17, the functions clock_getcpuclockid, clock_getres,
clock_gettime, clock_nanosleep, and clock_settime were moved from
librt.so to libc.so, leaving compatibility stubs behind. Now that the
dynamic linker no longer insists on finding versioned symbols in the
same library that originally defined them, we do not need the stubs
anymore, and this means we don't need GLIBC_PRIVATE __-prefix aliases
for most of the functions anymore either. (clock_gettime still needs
one.) For ports added before 2.17, libc.so needs to provide two
symbol versions for each, the default at GLIBC_2.17 plus a compat
version matching what librt had.
While I'm at it, move the clock_*.c files and their tests from rt/ to
time/.

As the result of commit 6e6249d0b461b952d0f544792372663feb6d792a
("BZ#14743: Move clock_* symbols from librt to libc."), in glibc 2.17,
clock_gettime, clock_getres, clock_settime, clock_getcpuclockid,
clock_nanosleep were added to libc, and the file rt/clock-compat.c
was added with forwarders to the actual implementations in libc.
These forwarders were wrapped in
#if SHLIB_COMPAT (librt, GLIBC_2_2, GLIBC_2_17)
so that they are not present for newer architectures (such as
powerpc64le) with a 2.17 or later ABI baseline. But the forwarders
were not marked as compatibility symbols. As a result, on older
architectures, historic configure checks such as
AC_CHECK_LIB(rt, clock_gettime)
still cause linking against librt, even though this is completely
unnecessary. It also creates a needless porting hazard because
architectures behave differently when it comes to symbol availability.

This patch uses the libc_ifunc macro to create already existing ifunc functions
clock_getres, clock_gettime, clock_settime, clock_getcpuclockid and
clock_nanosleep. If HAVE_IFUNC is defined, the macro COMPAT_REDIRECT uses
the libc_ifunc macro.
Furthermore some whitespace damage is cleaned.
ChangeLog:
* rt/clock-compat.c (COMPAT_REDIRECT): Use libc_ifunc macro.
