libglusterfs: Add monotonic clocking counter for timer thread

gettimeofday() returns the current wall clock time and timezone.
Using these functions in order to measure the passage of time
(how long an operation took) therefore seems like a no-brainer.

This time suffer's from some limitations:

a. They have a low resolution: “High-performance” timing by
definition, requires clock resolutions into the microseconds
or better.

b. They can jump forwards and backwards in time: Computer
clocks all tick at slightly different rates, which causes
the time to drift. Most systems have NTP enabled which
periodically adjusts the system clock to keep them in sync
with “actual” time. The adjustment can cause the clock to
suddenly jump forward (artificially inflating your timing
numbers) or jump backwards (causing your timing calculations
to go negative or hugely positive). In such cases timer
thread could go into an infinite loop.

From 'man gettimeofday':
----------
..
..
The time returned by gettimeofday() is affected by discontinuous
jumps in the system time (e.g., if the system administrator manually
changes the system time).  If you need a monotonically increasing
clock, see clock_gettime(2).

Rationale:

For calculating interval timing for Timer thread, all that’s
needed should be clock as a simple counter that increments
at a stable rate.

This is necessary to avoid the jumps which are caused by using
"wall time", this counter must be monotonic that can never
“tick” backwards, ever.
