[Dle-develop] [PATCH v4] Add timestamp to error message

[Seiji A. <sei...@hd...>]

[Issue]
When we offer a customer support service and a problem happens
in a customer's system, we try to understand the problem by
comparing what the customer reports with message logs of the
customer's system.

In this case, we often need to know when the problem happens.

But, currently, there is no timestamp in qemu's error messages.
Therefore, we may not be able to understand the problem based on
error messages.

[Solution]
Add a timestamp to qemu's error message logged by
error_report() with g_time_val_to_iso8601().

[TODO]
Add timestamp to monitor_printf() and fprintf().

Changelog
 v3 -> v4
 - Correct email address of Signed-off-by.

 v2 -> v3

 - Use g_time_val_to_iso8601() to get timestamp instead of
   copying libvirt's time-handling functions.

   According to discussion below, qemu doesn't need to take care
   if timestamp functions are async-signal safe or not.

   http://marc.info/?l=qemu-devel&m=136741841921265&w=2

   Also, In the review of v2 patch, strftime() are recommended to
   format string. But it is not a suitable function to handle msec.

   Then, simply call g_time_val_to_iso8601().

 - Intoroduce a common time-handling function to util/qemu-time.c.
   (Suggested by Daniel P. Berrange)

 v1 -> v2

 - add an option, -msg timestamp={on|off}, to enable output message with timestamp
