rtc: add boot_timesource sysfs attribute
CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS allows the kernel to read the system time from the RTC at boot and resume, avoiding the need for userspace to do so. Unfortunately userspace currently has no way to know whether this configuration option is enabled and thus cannot sensibly choose whether to run hwclock itself or not. Add a hctosys sysfs attribute which indicates whether a given RTC set the system clock.
