time: add runtime sanity check
std::chrono::system_clock.time_since_epoch and time_t(0) are not guaranteed to use the Unix epoch timestamp, but in practice they almost certainly will. Any differing behavior will be assumed to be an error, unless certain platforms prove to consistently deviate, at which point we'll cope with it by adding offsets. Do a quick runtime check to verify that time_t(0) == std::chrono::system_clock's epoch time == unix epoch. Co-authored-by: Anthony Towns <aj@erisian.com.au>
