Chengchang Tang 80aa15c4df examples/timer: fix time interval
Timer sample example assumes that the frequency of the timer is about
2Ghz to control the period of calling rte_timer_manage(). But this
assumption is easy to fail. For example. the frequency of tsc on ARM64
is much less than 2Ghz.

This patch uses the frequency of the current timer to calculate the
correct time interval to ensure consistent result on all platforms.

In addition, the rte_rdtsc() is replaced with the more recommended
rte_get_timer_cycles function in this patch.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
