Add support for TX timestamping in ISO/L2CAP sockets.

These patches allow fixing / working around controller(?) issue where
two ISO streams in same group get desynchronized.  Having accurate
knowledge of the packet queue lengths, user application can drop packets
if it detects the ISO streams are not in sync.

For using this for audio, BlueZ needs to be changed to not
unconditionally terminate connections on POLLERR.  It currently thinks
the TX timestamp POLLERR is an error, and closes the audio channel.  For
BAP, BlueZ only closes the fd in this case so it accidentally works
there, but for A2DP it is more thorough in tearing down the connection.

Pipewire side:

With this change, https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/515 is more or
less fixed, and the sound server can figure out the total latency to
audio rendering (tx latency + transport latency + presentation delay).

For ISO, we can later use LE Read ISO TX Sync to provide hardware
timestamps, but this requires figuring out the sequence number
synchronization first.
