instrumentation: Standardize ticks to nanosecond conversion method

instrumentation: Standardize ticks to nanosecond conversion method

The timing infrastructure (INSTR_* macros) measures time elapsed using
clock_gettime() on POSIX systems, which returns the time as nanoseconds,
and QueryPerformanceCounter() on Windows, which is a specialized timing
clock source that returns a tick counter that needs to be converted to
nanoseconds using the result of QueryPerformanceFrequency().

This conversion currently happens ad-hoc on Windows, e.g. when calling
INSTR_TIME_GET_NANOSEC, which calls QueryPerformanceFrequency() on every
invocation, despite the frequency being stable after program start,
incurring unnecessary overhead. It also causes a fractured implementation
where macros are defined differently between platforms.

To ease code readability, and prepare for a future change that intends
to use a ticks-to-nanosecond conversion on x86-64 for TSC use, introduce
new pg_ticks_to_ns() / pg_ns_to_ticks() functions that get called from
INSTR_* macros on all platforms.

These functions rely on a separately initialized ticks_per_ns_scaled
value, that represents the conversion ratio. This value is initialized
from QueryPerformanceFrequency() on Windows, and set to zero on x86-64
POSIX systems, which results in the ticks being treated as nanoseconds.
Other architectures always directly return the original ticks.

To support this, pg_initialize_timing() is introduced, and is now
mandatory for both the backend and any frontend programs to call before
utilizing INSTR_* macros.

In passing, fix variable names in comment documenting INSTR_TIME_ADD_NANOSEC().
