These keywords introduce new checks for a timestamp, an absolute date (which is 
converted to a timestamp),
an hour in the day (which is converted to the number of seconds since midnight) 
and a day of week.

When converting an ISO date (eg. 2019-06-06 17:00) to a timestamp,
we need to substract it the GMT difference in seconds, that is, the value
of the 'tm_gmtoff' field in the tm structure. This is because the kernel
doesn't know about time zones. And hence the kernel manages different timestamps
than those that are advertised in userspace when running, for instance, date 
+%s.

The same conversion needs to be done when converting hours (e.g 17:00) to 
seconds since midnight
as well.

The result needs to be computed modulo 86400 in case GMT offset (difference in 
seconds from UTC)
is negative.

We also introduce a new command line option (-t, --seconds) to show the actual
timestamps when printing the values, rather than the ISO dates, or the hour.

Some usage examples:

        time < "2019-06-06 17:00" drop;
        time < "2019-06-06 17:20:20" drop;
        time < 12341234 drop;
        day "Sat" drop;
        day 6 drop;
        hour >= 17:00 drop;
        hour >= "17:00:01" drop;
        hour >= 63000 drop;

We need to convert an ISO date to a timestamp
without taking into account the time zone offset, since comparison will
be done in kernel space and there is no time zone information there.

Overwriting TZ is portable, but will cause problems when parsing a
ruleset that has 'time' and 'hour' rules. Parsing an 'hour' type must
not do time zone conversion, but that will be automatically done if TZ has
been overwritten to UTC.

Hence, we use timegm() to parse the 'time' type, even though it's not portable.
Overwriting TZ seems to be a much worse solution.

Finally, be aware that timestamps are converted to nanoseconds when
transferring to the kernel (as comparison is done with nanosecond
precision), and back to seconds when retrieving them for printing.

We swap left and right values in a range to properly handle
cross-day hour ranges (e.g. 23:15-03:22).

The first time, we need to call expr_evaluate_range, error printing
disabled, because otherwise an error (example below) will be printed
even though the ruleset was eventually successfully evaluated. This
might be misleading for the end user.

    meta-test:25:11-21: Error: Range has zero or negative size
                    hour eq 23:15-03:22 drop;
                            ^^^^^^^^^^^
