[PATCH] posix-timers: Declare function parameter as const and constify k_clock structures

[Bhumika Goyal]

The second parameter struct k_clock *new_clock of function
posix_timers_register_clock is only dereferenced and copied into another
structure. Therefore it can be made const. Update the function
prototype accordingly.
Update the structures passed to posix_timers_register_clock, as this is
their only use.
