A cleanup for MDEV-16939: avoid timeval initialization related problems in the future (compilation failures on Windows)

Adding a helper class Timeval, to initialize "struct timeval" in a safe way.
As a bonus, adding a  method Timeval::trunc(), so the caller now can have
one line instead of five lines (declaration, initializations of sec and usec,
truncation, passing to store_TIMEVAL()).
