If any time symbol it to made global I think current_dtime is the first
candidate. It both has more precision and a better name. If
squid_curtime is to be moved to lib then it should be renamed to
something saner..

But on the other hand.. measurements have shown that gettimeofday() is a
very quick call, at least on Linux.. think it was somewhere around 60 ns
on my 450MHz Pentium III laptop... (well, this was ofcourse from a loop
all cached in L1 cache but...)
