Currently nsTerminator::RunWatchdog counts ticks while looping, assuming that the effective duration of the sleep is approximately similar to the requested one.

In particular under MacOS (but also Windows) the effective duration of each loop run seems to be largely varying and tending to last significantly longer, up to 50%, it seems.

We could substitute the counter with a wall-clock based effective-ms-passed measurement at each loop run (and re-transform this into ticks).
