boot-time-analysis-tools: add boot time profiling tools

Add two new recipes from the CentOS Automotive SIG
boot-time-analysis-tools project to enable boot time profiling
and measurement.

boot-time-analysis-tools:
  Python-based toolset for collecting, analyzing and visualizing system
  boot timing data from the systemd journal. Provides the 'boot_timings'
  CLI utility which queries D-Bus and the systemd journal to produce
  structured boot time reports. Depends on python3-dbus and python3-systemd
  for runtime journal and D-Bus access.

cntvct-log:
  Userspace C utility built with Meson that logs ARM CNTVCT_EL0 virtual
  counter timestamps to correlate hardware-level timing with systemd boot
  events. Installs cntvct@.service as a systemd template unit (disabled
  by default) for on-demand per-instance activation. The service preset
  file (98-cntvct-log.preset) is installed for system-preset-based enablement.

Both recipes fetch from the same upstream git repository:
  https://gitlab.com/CentOS/automotive/src/boot-time-analysis-tools
