Subject: [PATCH] time: Make NTP optionnal

On embedded systems with limited space, synchronizing system clock via
NTP might be not needed.

This commit introduces a new Kconfig entry. When disabled, it compiles
out the adjtimex and clock_adjtimes system calls. The corresponding NTP
accessors are also disabled from timekeeping.c and their declaration are
replaced by no_op static inline functions in time.h

The bloat-o-meter output is the following:
