Change NTP client to systemd-timesyncd.

(Excluding our NTP master.)  It's simpler, arguably more secure, and
provides enough functionality when only simple client use-cases are
desired.

We allow outgoing connections to 123/udp also on NTP slaves so systemd-timesyncd
can connect to the fallbacks NTP servers.
