Rename PBD::QPC::get_timer_valid to check_timer_valid and perform timer test
I'm not sure if this test is going to be effective as I don't have hardware to
test on at the moment. As noted in the documentation, Windows XP should be the
only OS where QPC uses a timer source that is non-monotonic(multi-core with
non-syncronized TSC).
