hrtimer: Allow hrtimer::function() to free the timer

Currently an hrtimer callback function cannot free its own timer
because __run_hrtimer() still needs to clear HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK
after it. Freeing the timer would result in a clear use-after-free.

Solve this by using a scheme similar to regular timers; track the
current running timer in hrtimer_clock_base::running.
