Prevent system time changes from affecting timeouts, other misc changes.

[catwood]

Here are some changes that I have been sitting on for a while. The monotonic clock change was inspired when someone changed the system time on my server backwards a bit ... which caused havoc with the timeouts in my APEServer javascript code. I have had the clock changes running on my production server for about 2 months now, the other changes for over a year.

Never experienced this clock bug, but nice find. I’ll test it out, but since I’m not a C expert, if someone else can confirm everything is fine I can probably merge that no problem.

Thanks!
