Add a test for the new functionality of userspace-driven timers and the
tool which allows us to count timer ticks in a certain time period. The
test:
1. Creates a userspace-driven timer with ioctl to /dev/snd/timer
2. Starts the `global-timer` application to count the ticks of the timer
from step 1.
3. Asynchronously triggers the timer multiple times with some interval
4. Compares the amount of caught ticks with the amount of trigger calls.
Since we can't include <alsa/asoundlib.h> and <sound/asound.h> in one
file due to overlapping declarations, I have to split the test into two
applications: one of them counts the amount of timer ticks in the
defined time period, and another one is the actual test which creates
the timer, triggers it periodically and starts the first app to count
the amount of ticks in a separate thread.
Besides from testing the functionality itself, the test represents a
sample application showing userspace-driven ALSA timers API.

V1 -> V2:
- Return NULL in the pthreaded function (ticking_func)
- Process TIMER_NO_EVENT enum in the timer app output processing loop
V2 -> V3:
- Add new test case to cover invalid period sizes and frame rates for
the userspace-driven timers (to test the sanity checks in
snd_utimer_create)
