Use wxGetUTCTimeUSec() in wxStopWatch under Unix for higher precision.

If gettimeofday() is available we can achieve better than millisecond
precision (even if it usually isn't as high as microsecond), so use it as
clock source in wxStopWatch.

 - Fix crash in wxArray::insert() overload taking iterator range (wsu).
 - Added wxEventFilter class and wxEvtHandler::{Add,Remove}Filter().
 - Added convenient wxCmdLineParser::AddLong{Option,Switch}() wrappers.
-- Added wxStopWatch::TimeInMicro() and wxGetUTCTimeUSec().
+- Added wxStopWatch::TimeInMicro() and wxGetUTCTimeUSec() and improved
+  wxStopWatch precision.
 - Made wxGetLocalTimeMillis() really return local time, added
   wxGetUTCTimeMillis() returning what this function used to return.
