feat(tvix/eval/observer): Allow capturing timing of events r/7459

Add a new --trace-runtime-timing flag (probably a better bikeshed for
this) that enables capturing the time, relative to the last event, of
each event recorded with the tracing observer.

This probably isn't *super* useful yet, but I'd like to start here in
adding new profiling tools to the VM, specifically based on the runtime
observer
