/* speed_time_init() - initialize timing things.  speed_starttime() calls
   this if it hasn't been done yet, so you only need to call this explicitly
   if you want to use the global variables before the first measurement.
  
   speed_starttime() - start a time measurment.

   speed_endtime() - end a time measurment, return time taken, in seconds.

   speed_unittime - global variable with the unit of time measurement
   accuracy, in seconds.

   speed_precision - global variable which is the intended accuracy of time
   measurements.  speed_measure() for instance runs target routines with
   enough repetitions so it takes at least speed_unittime*speed_precision
   seconds.  A program can provide an option so the user can set this.

   speed_cycletime - the time in seconds for each CPU cycle, for example on
   a 100 MHz CPU this would be 1.0e-8.  If the CPU frequency is unknown,
   speed_cycletime is 1.0.  See speed_cycletime_init().

   speed_time_string - a string describing the time method in use.


   Enhancements:

   Add support for accurate timing on more CPUs, machines and systems.

   Extend automatic CPU frequency determination to more kernels and systems.
