Allow skipping of all hardware clock adjustments
For virtualized machines, the hardware clock doesn't actually exist, so all
hwclock calls fail and print error messages during system startup, shutdown,
and the hourly adjtime cronjob. By explicitly looking for HARDWARECLOCK to
be set to 'UTC' or 'localtime', all other values will result in hwclock
calls being skipped (e.g. set the variable to 'none').
