****************************************************************************

    Attotime is an attosecond-accurate timing system implemented as
    96-bit integers.

        1 second      = 1e0 seconds
        1 millisecond = 1e-3 seconds
        1 microsecond = 1e-6 seconds
        1 nanosecond  = 1e-9 seconds
        1 picosecond  = 1e-12 seconds
        1 femtosecond = 1e-15 seconds
        1 attosecond  = 1e-18 seconds

    This may seem insanely accurate, but it has its uses when multiple
    clocks in the system are run by independent crystals. It is also
    useful to compute the attotime for something small, say 1 clock tick,
    and still have it be accurate and useful for scaling.

    Attotime consists of a 32-bit seconds count and a 64-bit attoseconds
    count. Because the lower bits are kept as attoseconds and not as a
    full 64-bit value, there is headroom to make some operations simpler.
