libpayload: honor TSC information under CONFIG_LP_TIMER_RDTSC

Browse Source 
When CONFIG_LP_TIMER_RDTSC is enabled honor the TSC information
exported in the coreboot tables as the cpu_khz frequency. That
allows get_cpu_speed() not to be called which currently relies
on the 8254 PIT. As certain x86 platforms allow that device
to be optional or turned off for power saving reasons, allow
a path where get_cpu_speed() is no longer called. Additionally,
this approach also allows the libpayload to not duplicate logic
that already exists in coreboot.

BUG=chrome-os-partner:50214
BRANCH=glados
TEST=Confirmed in payload TSC frequency is honored instead of
     using get_cpu_speed().
