Comment:
We came up with a simple ratcheted implementation in
tor_gettimeofday_cached_monotonic. Doing the right thing here will be a
bit tricky, given how we need to cache times here too, so I think we're
okay deferring to 0.2.6.
(For an overview of how complicated the right thing is here, peruse
Libevent's https://github.com/libevent/libevent/blob/master/evutil_time.c
)
