Introduce a type representing a span of time. Define our own type
because `core::time::Duration` is large and could panic during

time::Ktime could be also used for time duration but timestamp and
timedelta are different so better to use a new type.

i64 is used instead of u64 to represent a span of time; some C drivers
uses negative Deltas and i64 is more compatible with Ktime using i64
too (e.g., ktime_[us|ms]_delta() APIs return i64 so we create Delta
object without type conversion.

i64 is used instead of bindings::ktime_t because when the ktime_t
type is used as timestamp, it represents values from 0 to
KTIME_MAX, which is different from Delta.

as_millis() method isn't used in this patchset. It's planned to be
used in Binder driver.

Thanks for adding millis, also will use that in my led patch :)
