qemu-io-cmds: use clock_gettime for benchmarking
The previous use of gettimeofday() ran into undefined behaviour when
we ended up doing a div 0 for a very short operation. This is because
gettimeofday only works at the microsecond level as well as being
prone to discontinuous jumps in system time. Using clock_gettime with
CLOCK_MONOTONIC gives greater precision and alleviates some of the
potential problems with time jumping around.
We could use CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW to avoid being tripped up by NTP and
adjtime but that is Linux specific so I decided it would do for now.
