[5.1] Optimization: Use Environment.TickCount for SqlStatistics execution timing

[cheenamalhotra]

Ports #3609 to release/5.1 branch

Closes #3763

[Copilot]

Pull request overview

This PR optimizes SQL execution timing statistics by replacing the DateTime-based timer with Environment.TickCount for measuring ExecutionTime. This change reduces overhead while maintaining accuracy for performance statistics. The PR ports optimization work from #3609 to the release/5.1 branch.

Key changes:

• Replaced DateTime.UtcNow.ToFileTimeUtc() with Environment.TickCount for ExecutionTime measurements
• Added wraparound-safe elapsed time calculation to handle TickCount rolling over every ~24.9 days
• Removed unreliable timing comparison assertions that could fail due to timing precision differences

File	Description
AdapterUtil.cs	Added FastTimerCurrent() to return Environment.TickCount and CalculateTickCountElapsed() to calculate elapsed time with wraparound handling
SqlStatistics.cs	Changed _startExecutionTimestamp to nullable long, updated ExecutionTime accumulation to use TickCount directly (already in milliseconds), removed TimerToMilliseconds conversion
TickCountElapsedTest.cs	New test file validating wraparound handling for TickCount elapsed time calculations
Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.Tests.csproj	Registered the new TickCountElapsedTest.cs test file
CopyAllFromReader.cs	Removed assertions comparing ConnectionTime/ExecutionTime/NetworkServerTime as these are no longer reliable with different timing mechanisms

I agree with Copilot.

This branch needs a merge with main to include the codeql.yml file required for CodeQL scanning. The file should be placed under .github/workflows, which is currently missing in this branch. I had a similar experience for one of my PR where merge was blocked with similar code scanning comment, adding the file enabled successful code scanning.
