[ovs-dev] [PATCH v2 1/2] timeval: clock_gettime() for Windows.

QueryPerformanceCounter() retrieves the current value of the performance
counter, which is a high resolution (<1us) time stamp that can be used for
time-interval measurements. So, use it for MONOTONIC clock.

The GetSystemTimePreciseAsFileTime() function retrieves the current system date
and time with the highest possible level of precision (<1us). Use it for
real time clock. This function returns a counter representing the number of
100-nanosecond intervals since January 1, 1601. To make it compatible with
Linux CLOCK_REALTIME, we need to calculate the 100-nanoseconds counter value
till 01/01/1970.

An upcoming commit implements gettimeofday() using the same clock, so,
carve out a function.
