If an eventdev PMD does not wish to provide event timer adapter ops
definitions, the library will fall back to a default software
implementation whose entry points are added by this commit.

Event devices can be coupled with various components to provide
new event sources by using event adapters. The event timer adapter
is one such adapter; it bridges event devices and timer mechanisms.
This library extends the event-driven programming model by
introducing a new type of event that represents a timer expiration,
and it provides APIs with which adapters can be created or destroyed
and event timers can be armed and canceled.
