Add stopwatch timer mechanism to Trace2.
Timers are an alternative to Trace2 Regions. Regions are useful for
measuring the time spent in various computation phases, such as the
time to read the index, time to scan for unstaged files, time to scan
for untracked files, and etc.
However, regions are not appropriate in all places. For example,
during a checkout, it would be very inefficient to use regions to
measure the total time spent inflating objects from the ODB from
across the entire lifetime of the process; a per-unzip() region would
flood the output and significantly slow the command; and some form of
post-processing would be requried to compute the time spent in unzip().
Timers can be used to measure a series of timer intervals and emit
a single summary event (at thread and/or process exit).

Add some global trace2 statistics for the number of fsyncs performed
during the lifetime of a Git process.
These stats are printed as part of trace2_cmd_exit_fl, which is
presumably where we might want to print any other cross-cutting
statistics.

It can be useful to tell who invoked Git - was it invoked manually by a
user via CLI or script? By an IDE? In some cases - like 'repo' tool -
we can influence the source code and set the GIT_TRACE2_PARENT_SID
environment variable from the caller process. In 'repo''s case, that
parent SID is manipulated to include the string "repo", which means we
can positively identify when Git was invoked by 'repo' tool. However,
identifying parents that way requires both that we know which tools
invoke Git and that we have the ability to modify the source code of
those tools. It cannot scale to keep up with the various IDEs and
wrappers which use Git, most of which we don't know about. Learning
which tools and wrappers invoke Git, and how, would give us insight to
decide where to improve Git's usability and performance.
Unfortunately, there's no cross-platform reliable way to gather the name
of the parent process. If procfs is present, we can use that; otherwise
we will need to discover the name another way. However, the process ID
should be sufficient to look up the process name on most platforms, so
that code may be shareable.
Git for Windows gathers similar information and logs it as a "data_json"
event. However, since "data_json" has a variable format, it is difficult
to parse effectively in some languages; instead, let's pursue a
dedicated "cmd_ancestry" event to record information about the ancestry
of the current process and a consistent, parseable way.
Git for Windows also gathers information about more than one generation
of parent. In Linux further ancestry info can be gathered with procfs,
but it's unwieldy to do so. In the interest of later moving Git for
Windows ancestry logging to the 'cmd_ancestry' event, and in the
interest of later adding more ancestry to the Linux implementation - or
of adding this functionality to other platforms which have an easier
time walking the process tree - let's make 'cmd_ancestry' accept an
array of parentage.
