Make Feather-Trace timestamp collection non-preemptive
If the tracing code is interrupted / preempted inbetween the time that a sequence number is drawn and the time that the trace recorded is allocated, then the trace file will contain "out of order" events. These are difficult to detect during post-processing and can create artificial "outliers". This patch briefly disables local interrutps to avoid this. While at it, de-duplicate the timestamp recording code.
