Gigasecond - Official Time Crate

[0x647262]

https://doc.rust-lang.org/time/time/index.html

Rust now has an official library for handling time. Would it be worth our time to replace chrono with time?

[petertseng]

Yeah, sure, if things have changed sufficiently since #79. Last I checked, the Repository linked at the time crate's page indicated that the time crate is deprecated, but if it is currently (or at any point in the future) maintained and/or has the functionality we need (to go from a year, month, date to a number of a seconds since an agreed-upon time) then using time would definitely be appropriate!

Nothing changed, time crate is still deprecated.

Notes

This library is no longer actively maintained, but bugfixes will be added (details).

In case you're looking for something a little fresher and more actively maintained have a look at the chrono crate.

I guess I should have done some more digging last night.

@ijanos @petertseng - Thanks for your time!
