gdb: Use C++11 std::chrono
This patch fixes a few problems with GDB's time handling.
#1 - It avoids problems with gnulib's C++ namespace support
On MinGW, the struct timeval that should be passed to gnulib's
gettimeofday replacement is incompatible with libiberty's
timeval_sub/timeval_add. That's because gnulib also replaces "struct
timeval" with its own definition, while libiberty expects the
system's.
E.g., in code like this:
gettimeofday (&prompt_ended, NULL);
timeval_sub (&prompt_delta, &prompt_ended, &prompt_started);
timeval_add (&prompt_for_continue_wait_time,
&prompt_for_continue_wait_time, &prompt_delta);
That's currently handled in gdb by not using gnulib's gettimeofday at
all (see common/gdb_sys_time.h), but that #undef hack won't work with
if/when we enable gnulib's C++ namespace support, because that mode
adds compile time warnings for uses of ::gettimeofday, which are hard
errors with -Werror.
#2 - But there's an elephant in the room: gettimeofday is not monotonic...
We're using it to:
a) check how long functions take, for performance analysis
b) compute when in the future to fire events in the event-loop
c) print debug timestamps
But that's exactly what gettimeofday is NOT meant for. Straight from
the man page:
~~~
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).
~~~
std::chrono (part of the C++11 standard library) has a monotonic clock
exactly for such purposes (std::chrono::steady_clock). This commit
switches to use that instead of gettimeofday, fixing all the issues
mentioned above.
