Unbreak microbench, add os.now() (#93)

The removal of the high-precision but non-standard clock source in
commit 5af98ca broke microbench because Date.now() is not granular
enough for the benchmark runner to make forward progress.

This commit adds a new method to the os module that returns time
with microsecond precision.
