Support overclocking and underclocking the Gamecube CPU

Browse Source 
Won't work with all games, but provides a nice way to spend extra CPU to make
a variable framerate game faster (e.g. Spyro or The Last Story), or to make
a game use less CPU at the cost of a lower framerate (e.g. Rogue Leader).

// Changing the CPU speed in Dolphin isn't actually done by changing the physical clock rate,

// compatible because it stops the games from actually knowing directly that the clock rate has
// changed, and ensures that anything based on waiting a specific number of cycles still works.

// Technically it might be more accurate to call this changing the IPC instead of the CPU speed,
// but the effect is largely the same.
