gmain: abort if monotonic time is unsupported

We now depend on CLOCK_MONOTONIC, but it's possible that people may
attempt to run GLib on systems where it isn't supported at runtime.

Check the return value of clock_gettime() and abort() if it fails in
order to save these people from wasting time on debugging a tricky
issue.
