[OE-core][PATCH v2] glib-2.0: skip a timing sensitive monotonic-time ptest

[Pratik Farkase <pratik.farkase@est.tech>]

The /monotonic-time-ns/similar test compares g_get_monotonic_time() and
g_get_monotonic_time_ns() by spinning until the microsecond clock ticks
and asserting the two clocks haven't diverged. This is inherently racy
under QEMU emulation on loaded hosts, as the process can be preempted
between the clock reads.

+Subject: [PATCH] Skip /monotonic-time-ns/similar test
+
+The test_similar test compares g_get_monotonic_time() and
+g_get_monotonic_time_ns() by spinning until the microsecond clock ticks
+and then asserting the two clocks haven't diverged beyond a factor of
+50. This is inherently racy under QEMU emulation on loaded hosts: the
+process can be preempted between the two clock reads, causing the
+assertion "50 * ns_elapsed > 1000 * us_elapsed" to fail.
