Time calculation is broken in datetime panel plugin (patch)

Hi,

today I built the datetime plugin from master and noticed that it
displayed nonsensical date and time values.

The reason is that in commit dc9e008a55347a22d5d1959a7d34136e78799344
the migration to g_get_real_time() broke the time calculation by mixing
up the units (s/ms/us).

That commit was made over a year ago, but it seems no one has noticed
this? Seems odd for such an obvious issue. Is this plugin deprecated or
something?

Anyway, I have prepared a patch that should fix the issue.

Greetings,
Christian
