[SDL] best way to calculate framerate per second

[Tommy Hinks]

I think that using the average over a longer time period than one
second would make it hard to find bottle-necks, since the fps will
take longer to react to such. As you say, one second is the standard,
and indeed the ackronym is Frames Per Second. For longer time periods
it should be called something else.
