NETINFO cells, which are sent in every handshake, may contain
timestamps. This patch adds an accessor for the timestamp in the
Netinfo messages, and teaches the tor-proto code how to compute the
minimum clock skew in the code.
The computation isn't terribly precise, but it doesn't need to be:
Tor should work fine if your clock is accurate to within a few
hours.
This patch also notes a Y2038 problem in the protocol: see
torspec#80.
Part of #405.

Previously coarsetime and the traffic-timestamp feature were
enabled, since they were only required for a small corner of the
guardmgr algorithm.
But in 1.0 and beyond we'll be adding a bunch of other features (eg,
netflow padding, DoS prevention) that will need coarsetime all over
the place.
And since we're going to be doing coarsetime all over the place, the
previous justification for making traffic-timestamping optional (the
tiny performance hit) is no longer relevant.

We need this for the circuit timeout estimator (#57). It needs to
know "how recently have we got some incoming traffic", so that it
can tell whether a circuit has truly timed out, or whether the
entire network is down.
I'm implementing this with coarsetime, since we need to update these
in response to every single incoming cell, and we need the timestamp
operation to be _fast_.
(This reinstates an earlier commit, f30b2280, which I reverted
because we didn't need it at the time.)
Closes #179.

This will cause some pain for now, but now is really the best time
to do this kind of thing.
