    userspace: wr_date can now set system time from WR time · 402abf96

    This is a short-term fix to actual user needs. We'll soon
    have a kernel module to track WR time, but most likely people
    won't use that module until the next release.
    
    Meanwhile, the normal "wr_date get" is enhanced to report both UTC and
    TAI.
    
    This wr_date is a simple plug-in replacement for installed switches.
    
    Example, after setting a wrong host time on purpose:
    (the example above includes extra blank lines to separate the output
    from the various commands)
    
       wrs-192.168.16.242#wr_date get; date; wr_date get tohost; date
