[PATCH 2/3] drm/panfrost: Add cycle counter job requirement

Extend the uAPI with a new job requirement flag for cycle
counters. This requirement is used by userland to indicate that a job
requires cycle counters or system timestamp to be propagated. (for use
with write value timestamp jobs)

We cannot enable cycle counters unconditionally as this would result in
an increase of GPU power consumption. As a result, they should be left
off unless required by the application.

This new uAPI will be used in Mesa to implement timestamp queries and
VK_KHR_shader_clock.
