Add weight parameter to the sample function. Samples with smaller weight
are less reliable, they can be ignored by the servo or the adjustments
of the clock can be smaller.

Introduce a new function to inform the servo about upcoming leap second.
This is used when the kernel leap is disabled to allow the servo to
handle better the sudden 1 second step in the offset when the leap
second is inserted or deleted.

With the new linreg servo the frequency offset and time offset are
controlled separately. The ratio between master's frequency and the
current frequency of the local clock is known and can be used when
calculating delay or peer delay to improve their accuracy.
This greatly improves the stability of the delay when the servo is
correcting a large offset.

These settings will be useful for all implemented servos, so move them
to the common servo code to avoid duplication. The configuration options
are renamed, but the they can be still set by their old names.

This patch adds a new servo method to let the algorithm know about the
master clock's reported sync message interval. This information can be
used by the servo to adapt its synchronization parameters.

Current date stored in nanoseconds doesn't fit in 64-bit double format.
Keep the offset and the time stamp in integer nanoseconds.
