drivers base/arch_topology: provide frequency-invariant accounting support

Implements the arch-specific (arm and arm64) frequency-invariance setter
function arch_set_freq_scale() which provides the following frequency
scaling factor:

  current_freq(cpu) << SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT / max_supported_freq(cpu)

One possible consumer of the frequency-invariance getter function
topology_get_freq_scale() is the Per-Entity Load Tracking (PELT)
mechanism of the task scheduler.

Allow inlining of topology_get_freq_scale() into the task scheduler
fast path (e.g. __update_load_avg_se()) by coding it as a static inline
function in the arch topology header file.
