If sample profiler was initially created before sampling has been
enabled, happens when setting up sessions during startup,
sample_profiler_load_dependecies won't get called, meaning we won't
setup timeBeginPeriod/timeEndPeriod on Windows, and won't adjust
default scheduling resolution to 1ms staying on default 16ms.

There is a ref count check in current sample_profiler_enable checking
if we should call sample_profiler_load_dependecies (_ref_count == 0),
but in case where we can't start profiling _can_start_sampling == false,
we won't call sample_profiler_enable but always increase _ref_count
that in turn will prevent calls to sample_profiler_load_dependecies when
enabling sample profiler and that in turn won't call timeBeginPeriod
staying on default scheduling resolution.

Fix is to always call sample_profiler_load_dependecies making sure we
will setup needed dependencies when _ref_count == 0.
