  -----------
  Reduce precision of common timer test

Ideally timers would be perfectly accurate and we could sleep for 1.0 seconds,
but on OSX in particular they could fire 50-100 ms late (I've seen 4 ms in
practice) and we don't want the tests to fail because of this, because we don't
really need that kind of precision in practice. So we reduce the timer
intervals by 100ms to be safe.

Increase logging level and add timestamps in testcommon.  Should help to debug
frequent test failures such as Condition [t2.HasExpired()] on OSX hosts on
Travis.

Add a SettingsGuard to the Console logger for its specific settings, such as
showing times and microseconds.

    M test/bbackupd/testbbackupd.cpp

  Log Message:
  -----------
  Increase precision of timing on Windows.

Should hopefully reduce random failures of timing-dependent tests which
rely on subsecond precision for accuracy.
