perf cs_etm: Set the time field in the synthetic samples

If virtual timestamps are detected, set sample time field accordingly,
otherwise warn the user that the samples will not include accurate
time data.

  | The time from the first sample to the last sample is 4 seconds

Now that times are converted to nanoseconds, also try to estimate the
timestamps more accurately be dividing by some fixed value for
instructions per ns. This prevents long ranges from being estimated
too far in the past than would be realistic.
