Zephyr timer is based on system ticks, there usually exists some time drift
due to round up/down errors between cycles, ticks and time delay, we
need to add those expected time drift into the bound calculation for
running this test.
Add a new config TIMER_TEST_PERIOD_MAX_DRIFT_PERCENT for users to set
expected maximum drift percentage for the timer period.

Test and validate the behavior of a timer driver.
Takes a number of absolute timer cycle samples of a periodic timer then
calculates statistical mean, variance, stddev along with total drift over
the entire test time. Ensures standard deviation and drift are within
a given configurable bound.
