Introduce the ktime_get() associated function to the ClockSource
trait, allowing each clock source to specify how it retrieves the
current time. This enables Instant::now() to be implemented
generically using the type-level ClockSource abstraction.
This change enhances the type safety and extensibility of timekeeping
by statically associating time retrieval mechanisms with their
respective clock types. It also reduces the reliance on hardcoded
clock logic within Instant.

Avoid 64-bit integer division that 32-bit architectures don't
implement generally. This uses ktime_to_us() and ktime_to_ms()
instead.
The time abstraction needs i64 / u32 division so C's div_s64() can be
used but ktime_to_us() and ktime_to_ms() provide a simpler solution
for this time abstraction problem on 32-bit architectures.
32-bit ARM is the only 32-bit architecture currently supported by
Rust. Using the cfg attribute, only 32-bit architectures will call
ktime_to_us() and ktime_to_ms(), while the other 64-bit architectures
will continue to use the current code as-is to avoid the overhead.
One downside of calling the C's functions is that the as_micros/millis
methods can no longer be const fn. We stick with the simpler approach
unless there's a compelling need for a const fn.
