Commit 8b6a404cdd2c40715885e562416c3db039912773 ("nanosecond: initial
commit changing timeval to timespec") introduced a change to
timespec_add_msec that decreased the time to (unsigned) overflow of
adj_nsec leading to strange values in the write_*_log files when using
log_avg_msec. The following fio job reproduces the problem:

./fio --ioengine=null --size=2G --time_based --runtime=11s \
 --ramp_time=5s --write_iops_log=overflow --log_avg_msec=5000 \
 --name=overflow

cat overflow_iops.1.log shows the following:
5000, 997853, 0, 0
10640, 141323, 0, 0

Compiling fio with clang's undefined behaviour
sanitizer with unsigned wraparound detection turned on by using

CC=clang ./configure --extra-cflags="-fsanitize=undefined,integer"

and running the previous job produces a lot of false positives but also
flags up this:

time.c:11:35: runtime error: unsigned integer overflow: 1000000 * 5000 cannot be represented in type 'unsigned int'

Fix this by forcing the type of the integer literal to ensure that a 64
bit multiplication takes place. Further, force the result variables to
be uint64_t allowing us to remove UL from other literals. Finally adjust
some spacing while we're here.

Fixes https://github.com/axboe/fio/issues/426 (which was also reported
on the mailing list - http://www.spinics.net/lists/fio/msg06190.html ).
