The TCB has three R/W-able "general purpose" hardware registers:
RA, RB and RC. The hardware is capable of:
* sampling Counter Value Register (CV) to RA/RB on a trigger edge
* sending an interrupt of this change
* sending an interrupt on CV change due to trigger
* triggering an interrupt on CV compare to RC
* stop counting after sampling to RB
To enable using these features in user-space, an interrupt handler
was added, generating the necessary counter events. On top, RA/B/C
registers are added as Count Extensions. To aid interoperation, a
uapi header was also added, containing the various numeral IDs of
the Extensions, Event channels etc.
