Previously the test makes several assumptions about the absolute values of the nodeTiming fields, which can make the test flaky on slow machines. This patch rewrites the test to check the relative values instead. It also updates the test to make it work with workers instead of directly skipping in workers.

From nodejs/reliability#638 this test has been failing 6 recent PRs, hopefully this makes the flake go away..

i tried stress testing this too locally with python3 tools/test.py test/sequential/test-perf-hooks.js --repeat 50 -j10 it passed well! so maybe could graduate to parallel too?

I am not sure why it was in sequential in the first place, but I think on the safe side we can just keep it there in this PR and if it looks well in the CI, move it to parallel afterwards (otherwise one doesn't know which is causing a regression if there is a regression).

Yeah makes sense!

// Use a fairly large epsilon value, since we can only guarantee that the node
// process started up in 15 seconds.
assert(Math.abs(performance.timeOrigin-Date.now())<15000);
assert(testStartTime<15000,`${testStartTime} >= 15000`);

I think in general we use >= in this codebase instead?
