sched_clock: Add local_clock() API and improve documentation

For people who otherwise get to write: cpu_clock(smp_processor_id()),
there is now: local_clock().

Also, as per suggestion from Andrew, provide some documentation on
the various clock interfaces, and minimize the unsigned long long vs
u64 mess.
