We use the PTP_SYS_OFFSET ioctl method in preference to doing
clock_gettime from user space, the assumption being that the kernel space
measurement will always be more accurate.

this patch changes sk_interface_phc to sk_get_ts_info, by allowing the function
to store all the data returned by Ethtool's get_ts_info IOCTL in a struct. A new
struct "sk_ts_info" contains the same data as well as a field for specifying the
structure as valid (in order to support old kernels without the IOCTL). The
valid field should be set only when the IOCTL successfully populates the fields.
A follow-on patch will add new functionality possible because of these
changes. This patch only updates the programs which use the call to perform the
minimum they already do, using the new interface.

This patch adds support for sk_interface_phc to lookup the /dev/ptpX device
using ethtool's get_ts_info ioctl
-v2-
* set ethdev to null initially
* rebased on top of phc2sys changes
-v3-
* fixed typo regarding slash

The main loop has become a bit messy, mixing two completely disjunct code
paths. This patch separates the two use cases for the sake of clarity.

As some PHC hardware/drivers don't provide PPS, it may be useful to keep the
system clock synchronized to PHC via clock_gettime(). While the precision
of the clock is only in microsecond range, the error seems to be quite stable.
The -d parameter now can be omitted if -s is provided.
