Add runtime.time, drop demo drivers, harden TSC timekeeping
Time is a kernel concern in danos: the kernel owns the scheduling timer and already exposes monotonic time via the clock/sleep/timer_bind syscalls, so a userspace time service would be a redundant, slower path. This adds the generic runtime.time module over those syscalls, retires the two demonstration drivers, reorganizes the milestone docs, and makes the monotonic clock correct on Intel, AMD, and inside any VM. runtime.time (library/runtime/time.zig) - Instant/Duration interface: now, sleep, spin, after, monotonicNanos, available - a thin layer over system.clock/sleep/timerOnce; unit-tested arithmetic Remove the demo drivers hpet and bus (a teaching example belongs in the docs, not shipped in the tree) - system/drivers/ now holds only real drivers: pci-bus, ps2-bus, usb-xhci-bus - device-manager end-to-end test repointed to pci-bus (asserts on kernel state: the process table and the device tree, not a racy serial marker) - device_register containment moved to a new in-kernel `containment` test - the driver-model worked example moved inline into docs/drivers.md Reorganize milestone docs into topic docs - m17-m18 / m19-m20 / m21 plans dissolved into process-lifecycle, device-manager, discovery, and acpi docs; new docs/power.md and docs/timers.md; ~20 citations repointed; plan docs deleted TSC reliability (apic.zig, smp.zig, cpu.zig, kernel.zig) - check the invariant-TSC bit (CPUID 0x80000007 EDX[8]) on Intel and AMD - cross-core "warp" check at SMP bring-up, pairwise BSP<->AP as each core comes up - fall back to the HPET clocksource when the TSC is not invariant (a bare VM) or not synchronized (a warp), switched continuously so time never jumps - boot log reports the outcome; new tsc-sync test exercises the TSC + warp path Verified: zig build; zig build test; 60/60 QEMU cases (incl. new containment and tsc-sync).
