timers: refactor timer callback initialization

This patch:

- Moves the timer callback initialization into bootstrap/node.js,
  documents when they will be called, and make the dependency on
  process._tickCallback explicit.
- Moves the initialization of tick callbacks and timer callbacks
  to the end of the bootstrap to make sure the operations
  done before those initializations are synchronous.
- Moves more internals into internal/timers.js from timers.js.
