[cogl/wip/frame-synchronization: 220/223] Don't use g_get_monotonic_time()

[Owen Taylor <otaylor src gnome org>]

commit 67bc4064ea0f63fdc3a751c4cf1df3edfeeceb2f
Author: Owen W. Taylor <otaylor fishsoup net>

    Don't use g_get_monotonic_time()
    
    Avoid a hard dependency on GLib and on however GLib is implementing
    g_get_monotonic_time() by directly referencing clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC).
    
    The translation of timestamp values for unidentified types of UST is
    also removed, since it's going to have a big error, and
    glXGetSyncValues() doesn't return the *current* UST anyways - it returns
    the UST for the last frame.
