timers: Keep the pinned timers separate from the others

Separate the storage space for pinned timers. Deferrable timers (doesn't
matter if pinned or non pinned) are still enqueued into their own base.

This is preparatory work for changing the NOHZ timer placement from a push
at enqueue time to a pull at expiry time model.
