compositor, backends: weston_compositor_read_presentation_clock
Create a new function weston_compositor_read_presentation_clock() to
wrap the clock_gettime() call for the Presentation clock.
Reading the presentation clock is never supposed to fail, but if it
does, this will notify about it. I have not seen it fail yet, though.
This prepares for new testing features in the future that might allow
controlling the presentation clock. Right now it is just a convenience
function for clock_gettime().
All presentation clock readers are converted to call this new function
except rpi-backend's rpi_flippipe_update_complete(), because it gets its
clock id via a thread-safe mechanism. There shouldn't be anything really
thread-unsafe in weston_compositor_read_presentation_clock() at the
moment, but might be in the future, and weston core is not expected to
need to be thread-safe.
