1111e2f8b43cd9ed62dcf6b571a224b84fc421fd Use steady clock in SeedStrengthen and FindBestImplementation (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
There may be a theoretical deadlock for the duration of the offset when the system clock is adjusted into a past time while executing `SeedStrengthen`.
Fix this by using steady clock.
Do the same in `FindBestImplementation`, which shouldn't be affected, because it discards outlier measurements. However, doing the same there for consistency seems fine.
Do the same in `FlushStateToDisk`, which should make the flushes more steady, if the system clock is adjusted by a large offset.

src/node/
The src/node/ directory contains code that needs to access node state
(state in CChain, CBlockIndex, CCoinsView, CTxMemPool, and similar
classes).
Code in src/node/ is meant to be segregated from code in
src/wallet/ and src/qt/, to ensure wallet and GUI
code changes don't interfere with node operation, to allow wallet and GUI code
to run in separate processes, and to perhaps eventually allow wallet and GUI
code to be maintained in separate source repositories.
As a rule of thumb, code in one of the src/node/,
src/wallet/, or src/qt/ directories should avoid
calling code in the other directories directly, and only invoke it indirectly
through the more limited src/interfaces/ classes.
This directory is at the moment
sparsely populated. Eventually more substantial files like
src/validation.cpp and
src/txmempool.cpp might be moved there.
