With cmdport 0 and port 0, it's now possible that there is no descriptor
watched or timer running, i.e. chronyd doing nothing and only waiting to
be terminated. Replace the assertion with LOG_FATAL to exit properly.
Rework makestep to cancel accumulated offset and step with the new
offset instead of accumulating new offset first, canceling all
accumulated offset and making the step.
This avoids two large frequency changes to initiate and cancel a slew
before making the step.
This is a partial revert of 8aa9eb19c8.
With the new generic driver cooking is cheap and it should be slighly
more accurate than reusing offset correction from the scheduler
timestamps.

This avoids unnecessary calls to the logging function when debugging
messages are not logged. The cost is a slight increase in the size of
the binary (when compiled with debug messages).
Add a new change type and use it when an unexpected time jump is
detected in the scheduler to reset reference times, offset and slewing,
NCR instances (with their polling interval), synchronization status, and
drop all sourcestats, manual, refclock and RTC samples.
This should make the recovery more graceful if the estimated jump has a
large error (e.g. select didn't timeout, or after system suspend).
When chrony reads in the linux rtc for the first time to trim the system
clock, it only reads it once. As it is possible that the rtc updates
itself during the read operation, the reported rtc time could be false.
To prevent this I've added a loop that reads the rtc clock twice, if the
seconds do not match retry the two read operations. If they match you
can assume the read operation was successful.
This is based on the hwclock implementation of reading the rtc clock
from the util-linux package.
The dispersion of refclock samples before filtering now includes only
offset correction error and precision.
This should fix a problem where locked PPS got stuck with large average
dispersion and didn't accept new samples due failing check of offset
and dispersion.
