lib: use Timer.now() in readline module

Using Date.now() introduces problems when operating under load or
otherwise with constrained resources. Use Timer.now() to mitigate.

The problem was identified in `test-readline-interface` where under
heavy load, `\r` and `\n` were received so far apart that they were
treated as separate line endings rather than a single line ending.
Switching to `Timer.now()` prevented this from happening.
