Expand description
Conversions between monotonic, Unix and NTP time. Monotonic, Unix and NTP time.
Protocol logic measures time with a monotonic Instant, which cannot go
backwards but has no absolute meaning. RTCP timestamps need the opposite: wall-clock time in
NTP format. SystemInstant captures both once, so either can be derived from the other later
without re-reading a clock that may have been adjusted in between.
