MDEV-23175: my_timer_milliseconds ftime deprecated - clock_gettime replacement

Linux glibc has deprecated ftime resutlting in a compile error on Fedora-32.

Per manual clock_gettime is the suggested replacement. Because my_timer_milliseconds
is a relative time used by largely the perfomrance schema, CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE
is used. This has been available since Linux-2.6.32.

The low overhead is shows in the unittest:
