Drop the pointless constructor in ArmArchTimerLib, which does nothing
useful, especially because AArch64 mandates the presence of the generic
timer, and 32-bit ARM is mostly obsolete these days.
To preserve the existing behavior in DEBUG builds when actually using
the timer, move the ASSERT () on a non-zero frequency to the associated
accessor helper function.

PcdArmArchTimerFreqInHz lets platforms override the architectural timer
frequency, but this really isn't supported in hardware by anything lower
than EL3. And we no longer support running edk2 at EL3.
So drop this Pcd and update ArmArchTimerLib to unconditionally use
ArmGenericTimerGetTimerFreq () instead.

Move TimerDxe and ArmArchTimerLib to ArmGenericTimerCounterLib, and update all
platforms to select the physical counter instance they have been using
implicitly all along.

Some ARM Platform components (ie: PrePei) use this constructor name to
initialize the timers (at this time there is no PE loader to call the
library constructors) when PI/UEFI is started to initialize the
PerformanceLib.
