pppd: Watch out for time warps
On many embedded systems there is no battery backed RTC and a proper system
time only becomes available through NTP after establishing a connection.
When the clock suddenly jumps forward, the internal accounting (connect time)
is confused resulting in unreliable data.
This patch implements periodic clock checking to look for time warps, if one
is detected, the internal counters are adjusted accordingly.
