config: Add a system clock command-line option

This patch adds a 'sys_clock' command-line option and use it to assign
clocks to the system during instantiation.

As part of this change, the default clock in the System class is
removed and whenever a system is instantiated a system clock value
must be set. A default value is provided for the command-line option.

The configs and tests are updated accordingly.
