arch/x86: Include timestamp.c in all stages
timestamp.c was not included in bootblock and postcar. This means that
these two stages would use the weak implementation in lib/timestamp.c
instead of the arch-specific implementation based on rdtsc.
On the test configuration, the weak implementation always returned
zero, resulting in wrong timestamps coming from the bootblock, while
romstage and ramstage used the arch implementation and returned
correct timestamps.
This is a great example of why weak functions are dangerous, and how
easy it is to miss subtle yet strong interactions between subsystems
and the coreboot buildsystem.
