Introduce clock port objects: ClockIn and ClockOut.

Theses ports may be used to distribute a clock from a object to several
other objects. The ClockIn object contains the current state of the
clock: the frequency.

A ClockIn may be connected to a ClockOut so that it receives update,
through the callback, whenever the Clockout is updated using the
ClockOut's set function.

This is based on the original work of Frederic Konrad.

Maybe the function name makes sens: trace_clock_set_frequency()
