    /// - The `Dt` is first converted to TAI internally (respecting all
    ///   scales, leap seconds, and relativistic models).
    /// - The duration since the Unix epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC) is then
    ///   computed.
    /// - Sub-nanosecond attoseconds are truncated toward zero.
    /// - Saturates at [`Timestamp::MIN`] / [`Timestamp::MAX`] if the instant
    ///   is outside the range supported by Jiff (roughly years 0000–9999).
    ///   Never returns an error.
