When tsc2nsec clock is used, save it as selected clock in the trace.dat
file. When reading the file, in case of tsc2nsec clock show timestamps
in usec / nsec.

OK, I see why you wanted to clean up the writing of all clocks. But I
still find that information valuable as for the reasons I stated in the
other email. I wonder if we can still read all the clocks, parse them
out (remove the '[' and ']') and have tracecmd_set_out_clock() still
write them. Hmm? Or at least save them in a new option (like I save
uname).

The TRACECMD_OPTION_TRACECLOCK option can be extended to hold the
content of the "trace_clock" file. It is an empty option now, adding
more bytes will not break the old logic.
