/** \class TTimeStamp
\ingroup Base

The TTimeStamp encapsulates seconds and ns since EPOCH

This extends (and isolates) struct timespec
~~~ {.cpp}
   struct timespec
      {
         time_t   tv_sec;   // seconds
         long     tv_nsec;  // nanoseconds
      }
   time_t seconds is relative to Jan 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC
~~~
No accounting of leap seconds is made.

Due to ROOT/CINT limitations TTimeStamp does not explicitly
hold a timespec struct; attempting to do so means the Streamer
must be hand written.  Instead we have chosen to simply contain
similar fields within the private area of this class.

NOTE: the use of time_t (and its default implementation as a 32 int)
      implies overflow conditions occurs somewhere around
      `Jan 18, 19:14:07, 2038`.
      If this experiment is still going when it becomes significant
      someone will have to deal with it.
