Fix PerformanceCounter's when running with Globalization Invariant Mode

[tarekgh]

PerformanceCounter's was creating culture objects using LCID. When running with Globalization Invariant Mode, it is not allowed to create any culture using LCID. Also, if the switch DOTNET_SYSTEM_GLOBALIZATION_PREDEFINED_CULTURES_ONLY is set to true there, it will not allow creating any culture even using culture names except the Invariant culture. That means PerformanceCounter library will not be usable at all when enabling the Globalization Invariant Mode.

The fix here is to allow running PerformanceCounter with the Globalization Invariant Mode and always report counters matching the English language at that time.
