Using CLOCK_REALTIME as the source for event timestamps is crucial for some specific applications, particularly those requiring timetamps relative to a PTP clock, so provide an option to switch the event timestamp source from the default CLOCK_MONOTONIC to CLOCK_REALTIME. Note that CLOCK_REALTIME was the default source clock for GPIO until Linux 5.7 when it was changed to CLOCK_MONOTONIC due to issues with the shifting of the realtime clock. Providing this option maintains the CLOCK_MONOTONIC as the default, while also providing a path forward for those dependent on the pre-5.7 behaviour.
