Include invocation start times

For multi-invocation builders (e.g., dist-x86_64-linux) this timestamp
is necessary to correlate the data in the metrics JSON with other data
sources (e.g., logs, cpu-usage CSV, etc.). Such correlation may not be
perfect but is sometimes helpful and awkward to do otherwise.
