Comment (by karsten):

 Alright, I made some trivial changes (avoid mixing minutes and
 milliseconds in `computeInitialDelayMillis()` and change unit tests to
 make period greater than offset) and some non-trivial rebasing and finally
 came up with what you can find in [https://gitweb.torproject.org/karsten
 /metrics-db.git/log/?h=task-19776-2 my task-19776-2 branch].  That branch
 contains fixes for parts 3 and 4 discussed here.  Want to take a final
 look before I push to master?
