Record trace_clock information in the trace_scratch area and recover
the trace_clock when boot, so that reader can docode the timestamp
correctly.
Note that since most trace_clocks records the timestamp in nano-
seconds, this is not a bug. But some trace_clock, like counter and
tsc will record the counter value. Only for those trace_clock user
needs this information.

 Changes in v2:
   - instead of exposing it via last_boot_info, set the current
     trace_clock as the same clock we used in the last boot.
