Rollup merge of #63846 - DevQps:32626-document-time-system-calls, r=rkruppe

Added table containing the system calls used by Instant and SystemTime.

# Description
See #32626 for a discussion on documenting system calls used by Instant and SystemTime.

## Changes
- Added a table containing the system calls used by each platform.

EDIT: If I can format this table better (due to the large links) please let me know.
I'd also be happy to learn a quick command to generate the docs on my host machine! Currently I am using: `python x.py doc --stage 0 src/libstd` but that gives me some `unrecognized intrinsic` errors. Advice is always welcome :)

closes #32626
