Miroslav Lichvar c8649ccb7e refclock_phc: support multiple extpps refclocks on one PHC ...

The Linux kernel (as of 6.2) has a shared queue of external timestamps
for all descriptors of the same PHC. If multiple refclocks using the
same PHC and the same or different channels were specified, some
refclocks didn't receive any or most of their timestamps, depending on
the rate and timing of the events (with the previous commit avoiding
blocking reads).

Track extpps-enabled refclocks in an array. Add PHC index to the PHC
instance. When a timestamp is read from the descriptor, provide it to
all refclocks that have the same PHC index and a channel matching the
event.

Make sure the timestamp is different from the previous one in case the
kernel will be improved to duplicate the timestamps for different
descriptors.
