counter: Introduce the Count capture component

Some devices provide a latch function to save historic Count values.
This patch standardizes exposure of such functionality as Count capture
components. A COUNTER_COMP_CAPTURE macro is provided for driver authors
to define a capture component. A new event COUNTER_EVENT_CAPTURE is
introduced to represent Count value capture events.
