Some really old platforms, rhel3, which don't define CLOCK_MONOTONIC, still need a way to build git. Some high resolution timer code was added Jul 12, 2014 to aid debugging performance issues. That code uses clock_gettime and CLOCK_MONOTONIC. That change breaks building git on ancient platforms which don't support CLOCK_MONOTONIC, so a way to disable that code is needed.

To use this feature...
$ make NO_CLOCK_GETTIME=1
This change amends the commit...
