hrtimers: Reorder clock bases

Browse Source 
The ordering of the clock bases is historical due to the
CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC constants. Now the hrtimer bases
have their own enumeration due to the gap between CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME. So we can be more clever as most timers end up on the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC base due to the virtue of POSIX declaring that
relative CLOCK_REALTIME timers are not affected by time changes. In
desktop environments this is slowly changing as applications switch to
absolute timers, but I've observed empty CLOCK_REALTIME bases often
enough. There is no performance penalty or overhead when
CLOCK_REALTIME timers are active, but in case they are not we don't
skip over a full cache line.
