Re: custom Nano time provider

@Alex Otenko <[email protected]>
I was gong to write exactly the same :)

That's why I still think it would beneficial to have something different
from a mocked solution, but a proper API extension that unify the usage of
temporal info.
From the POV of performance it shouldn't be a big problem, given that a
real system is supposed to always use a single provide (and implementor)
making the actual call always monomorphic and (given that should just wrap
System::nanotTime)
trivially inlineable.
