o Remove ONLY_FOR_ARCHS limitation by adding timing support other
than RDTSC registers from Pentium. After a reminder by Garrett
Wollman <wollman@FreeBSD.org> [1] that FreeBSD has a gethrtime()
similar function, added experimental support for FreeBSD
clock_gettime(2) which should work in all FreeBSD supported ARCHes
o Add notes in both DESCR and PKGMESSAGE that there might be precision
differences since this is experimental code
