ovsdb: write commit timestamps to millisecond resolution.
This is expected to make system debugging easier.
This raises two compatibility issues:
1. When a new ovsdb-tool reads an old database, it will multiply by 1000 any
timestamp it reads which is less than 1<<31. Since this date corresponds to
Jan 16 1970 this is unlikely to cause a problem.
2. When an old ovsdb-tool reads a new database, it will interpret the
millisecond timestamps as seconds and report dates in the far future; the
time of this commit is reported as the year 45672 (each second since the
epoch is interpreted as 16 minutes).
