FilesystemDateStamp

Date and time stamp based on year zero epoch, with millisecond resolution

Notes:

• Dates before 1/1/1970 will result in unixTime() = -1.
• Dates before 1/1/1900 may result in invalid or inconsistent std::tm from timeDate().
• Daylight Saving Time is observed in unixTime() and timeDate(), but not in the *_utc() variants.
