The timer controller can be driven by either an external 1MHz clock or
by the APB clock. Today, the model makes the assumption that the APB
frequency is always set to 24MHz but this is incorrect.
The AST2400 SoC on the palmetto machines uses a 48MHz input clock
source and the APB can be set to 48MHz. The consequence is a general
system slowdown. The QEMU machines using the AST2500 SoC do not seem
impacted today because the APB frequency is still set to 24MHz.
We fix the timer frequency for all SoCs by linking the Timer model to
the SCU model. The APB frequency driving the timers is now the one
configured for the SoC.

commit 1d3e65aa7a ("hw/timer: Add value matching support to
aspeed_timer") increased the vmstate version of aspeed.timer because
the state had changed, but it also bumped the version of the
VMSTATE_STRUCT_ARRAY under the aspeed.timerctrl which did not need to.
Change back this version to fix migration.

When a timer is enabled before a reload value is set, the controller
waits for a reload value to be set before starting decrementing. This
fix tries to cover that case by changing the timer expiry only when
a reload value is valid.
