Add retain basic implementation on GNU/Linux
Retain is saved in file and backup of this file is done every time.
File isn't saved on every PLC cycle to avoid high I/O load.
By default, retain is saved every second and on PLC stop/shutdown.
It's possible to override retain flush period by using CFLAGS option
in project's settings. For example, for 0.5 seconds period
use "-DFILE_RETAIN_SAVE_PERIOD_S=0.5".

Add helper function GetRetainSize()

use CLOCK_MONOTONIC instead of CLOCK_REALTIME for timer setup
CLOCK_REALTIME is a wall clock, that could change back and forth (user
changes system time, winter/summer time, NTP corrections and so on).
For real-time application CLOCK_MONOTONIC should be used, it doesn't
have such jumps.
