Build failure in cellular_modem sample for nrf9160dk/nrf9160/ns and nrf9160dk/nrf52840 targets

[nmpluta]

Describe the bug
The sample zephyr/samples/net/cellular_modem fails during building on two tested targets: nrf9160dk/nrf9160/ns and nrf9160dk/nrf52840 even though it seems that those targets should be supported based on the fact that .conf and .overlay files are provided in the boards directory for this sample.

It appears to be related to a missing timer member within the const struct uarte_nrfx_config structure, leading to a compilation error. This missing member disrupts the proper configuration of the UART peripheral for the cellular modem sample, resulting in the build failure.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. For target nrf9160dk/nrf9160/ns:

   west build -b nrf9160dk/nrf9160/ns samples/net/cellular_modem -p
   

2. For target nrf9160dk/nrf52840:

   west build -b nrf9160dk/nrf52840 samples/net/cellular_modem -p
   

Expected behavior
The sample should build successfully for both targets.

Impact
This issue prevents the successful building of the sample for the specified targets.
