timer: protect timers_state's clock with seqlock
QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL may be read outside BQL. This will make its
foundation, i.e. cpu_clock_offset exposed to race condition.
Using private lock to protect it.
After this patch, reading QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL is thread safe
unless use_icount is true, in which case the existing callers
still rely on the BQL.
Lock rule: private lock innermost, ie BQL->"this lock"
