timekeeping: Remove CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING

Browse Source 
Since 135225a363 timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() handles large offsets which
would lead to 64bit multiplication overflows correctly. It's also protected
against negative motion of the clocksource unconditionally, which was
exclusive to x86 before.

timekeeping_advance() handles large offsets already correctly.

That means the value of CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING which analyzed these cases
is very close to zero. Remove all of it.

config DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING
bool "Enable extra timekeeping sanity checking"
help
This option will enable additional timekeeping sanity checks
which may be helpful when diagnosing issues where timekeeping
problems are suspected.
This may include checks in the timekeeping hotpaths, so this
option may have a (very small) performance impact to some
workloads.
If unsure, say N.
