runtime: do not call timeBeginPeriod on windows

Calling timeBeginPeriod changes Windows global timer resolution
from 15ms to 1ms. This used to improve Go runtime scheduler
performance, but not anymore. Thanks to @aclements, scheduler now
behaves the same way if we call timeBeginPeriod or not.

Remove call to timeBeginPeriod, since it is machine global
resource, and there are downsides of using low timer resolution.
See issue #8687 for details.

Fixes #8687
