libcurl won't use the "wall time" for anything, so just taking a tick

What happens when such a counter wraps? While such a coincidence is unlikely
it seems that some timeouts may not work correctly. Is that a valid concern
for an application that may stay up for long periods of time?
If that counter wraps, you need to make take that into account when you use
that to provide the time for libcurl as libcurl will blindly assume that time
always runs forward.
