plan9.ini: add *notsc= option to disable use of TSC as righ resolution clock
we previously used tsc only on cpu kernel. now that
we use it on terminal kernel too, there might be some
surprises ahead.
so make it possible to disable tsc for machines where
the tsc rate is not kept constant across cores or is
dynamically adjusted by power management.
