Kernel: Let TimeManagement keep epoch time as timespec

Browse source 
Previously, it was kept as just a time_t and the sub-second
offset was inferred from the monotonic clock. This means that
sub-second time adjustments were ignored.

Now that `ntpquery -s` can pass in a time with sub-second
precision, it makes sense to keep time at that granularity
in the kernel.

After this, `ntpquery -s` immediately followed by `ntpquery` shows
an offset of 0.02s (that is, on the order of network roundtrip time)
instead of up to 0.75s previously.
