When a timing sensitive test run on a heavily loaded system, sometimes a
task runs for longer than it usually does and causes the test to fail.
All the timing requirements in the unit tests are trying to verify the
various delays in our codebase, and mostly we don't care about the time
taken by active running code (as they are very quick.) To improve the
stability of tests, let's slow down the time. To a test, it's as if the
code runs faster. If a test uses udelay() and exceeds the 10-second time
limit, we can make that single test faster by setting the time scale.

The implementation of trace dump has little to do with task scheduling,
so we should move it to a separate module for cleaner code. This
requires exposing some emulator-specific task info, as defined in
host_task.h.
