Removed CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE support.

While clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE) is faster than
clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC), the latter is fast enough on Linux for
practical usage, and the difference is negligible compared to other costs
at each event loop iteration. On the other hand, CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE
causes various issues with typical CONFIG_HZ=250, notably very inacurate
limit_rate handling in some edge cases (ticket #1678) and negative difference
between $request_time and $upstream_response_time (ticket #1965).
