[LibOS] Add support for timerfd system calls
This commit adds support for system calls that create and operate on a timer that delivers timer expiration notifications via a file descriptor, specifically: `timerfd_create()`, `timerfd_settime()` and `timerfd_gettime()`. The timerfd object is associated with a dummy eventfd created on the host to trigger notifications (e.g., in epoll). The object is created inside Gramine, with all it operations resolved entirely inside Gramine. The emulation is currently implemented at the level of a single process. However, it may sometimes work for multi-process applications, e.g., if the child process inherits the timerfd object but doesn't use it. However, all timerfds created in the parent process are marked as invalid in child processes, i.e. inter-process timing signals via timerfds are not allowed. LibOS regression tests are also added.
