Fix the microsecond-to-nanosecond conversion in rv_clock_gettime()
A microsecond is 1000 times bigger than a nanosecond (10-6 vs 10-9 seconds). This commit corrects the conversion of microseconds to nanoseconds in rv_clock_gettime() by multiplying tv_usec by 1000 instead of dividing it.
The issue with time conversion for rv_clock_gettime has been resolved by @visitorckw, and it is expected that the fix would be included in newlib version 4.4. We need to verify that the prebuilt RISC-V toolchains, especially those maintained by SiFive, incorporate newlib-4.4 into their builds. Once confirmed, we will be able to mandate the proper approach for handling rv_clock_gettime.

Let's keep this pull request and wait for prebuilt GNU Toolchain for landing newlib fixes.

Recent riscv-gnu-toolchain supports newlib 4.4.0, meaning that it is time to adopt this proposed change.
Once the prebuilt GNU Toolchain for RISC-V is ready for downloading, I will merge this pull request and rebuild all ELF files.

The Nightly: April 12, 2024 build should include newlib v4.4.0 already.
