//! High-precision clock trait providing nanosecond accuracy.

/// A trait representing a clock with nanosecond precision.
///
/// This trait extends [`Clock`] to provide high-precision time measurements
/// at the nanosecond level. It's useful for performance testing,
/// microbenchmarking, and scenarios requiring very precise time measurements.
///
/// # Note
///
/// The nanosecond timestamp is stored as an `i128` to avoid overflow issues.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// use qubit_clock::{NanoClock, NanoMonotonicClock};
///
/// let clock = NanoMonotonicClock::new();
/// let start = clock.nanos();
///
/// // Perform some operation
/// for _ in 0..1000 {
///     // Some work
/// }
///
/// let elapsed = clock.nanos() - start;
/// println!("Elapsed: {} ns", elapsed);
/// ```
