Revert "x86/HPET: don't enable legacy replacement mode unconditionally"

This reverts commit e680cc48b7184d3489873d6776f84ba1fc238ced.

It was committed despite multiple objections.  The agreed upon fix is a
different variation of the same original patch, and the delta between the two
is far from clear.

By reverting this commit first, the fixes are clear and coherent as individual
patches, and in the appropriate form for backport to the older trees.

 When the hmp-unsafe option is disabled (default), CPUs that are not
 identical to the boot CPU will be parked and not used by Xen.

-> Default : `true`, `no-broadcast`, 'no-legacy-replacement`
-
-Controls Xen's use of the system's High Precision Event Timer.  The boolean
-allows to turn off use altogether.
-
-`broadcast` forces Xen to keep using the broadcast for CPUs in deep C-states
-even when an RTC interrupt got enabled.
-
-`legacy-replacement` is intended to be used on platforms where the timer
-interrupt doesn't get raised by the legacy PIT.  This then also affects
-raising of the RTC interrupt.

-Deprecated alternative of `hpet=broadcast`.
