[Intel-gfx] [PATCH i-g-t] lib/igt_perf: Request CLOCK_MONOTONIC when opening events

[Tvrtko Ursulin]

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at intel.com>

Ask for CLOCK_MONOTONIC which is more stable than the default perf clock.

(Ability to select a clock has been available since kernel version 4.1.)

The change should not have any significant impact on the IGT as whole
apart from maybe improving the occasional jitter in tests/tools which use
nanosleep(2) and use time slept together with perf reported time delta
either in direct or indirect calculations.
