This commit increase precision of Sleep() function on Windows.
This fix reduces the sleep time on Windows to improve AMF encoding
performance on low resolution input videos.

Fix for issue #10622

v2: use timeBeginPeriod/timeEndPeriod for increasing precision of Sleep()

Please take a look on this patch, it helps to improve AMF encoding
performance on small resolution video on Windows platform by using more
precise Sleep()

Is it reasonable to set this global state from a library without the parent program knowing?  We'd really prefer not to affect the global state unexpectedly.

It's also unclear to me what the effect of this tradeoff on power is, given that the whole reason why this happens is that Windows is trying to keep the CPU asleep for as long as possible to save power.

Thanks,

- Mark

CreateWaitableTimerExW() with the
CREATE_WAITABLE_TIMER_HIGH_RESOLUTION flag might be an alternative?
