We can only get current time on our platform to the second precision, but there 
is a higher resolution system tick counter available. Looks like libcurl is 
using system ticks on Win32, does that mean that libcurl never needs actual 
current time (for like writing it out to headers or such) but only a 
monotonically increasing value? We are currently using the 1sec resolution 
clock for the curlx_tvnow port and it looks like switching to system ticks 
should be safe given its value doesn't wrap too often? Wondering if there will 
be any benefit of using higher-precision clock apart from getting more precise 
timing metrics?

Thanks,
Vladimir
