Subject: Stop explicitly using nanotime(9) and use the new get_cyclecounter(9)
 call instead.

This makes a pretty dramatic difference to the amount of work that
the harvester needs to do - it is much friendlier on the system.
(80386 and 80486 class machines will notice little, as the new
get_cyclecounter() call is a wrapper round nanotime(9) for them).
