    Add timestamp helper functions
    
    Add k5-int.h helper functions to manipulate krb5_timestamp values,
    avoiding undefined behavior and treating negative timestamp values as
    times between 2038 and 2106.  Add a doxygen comment for krb5_timestamp
    indicating how third-party code should use it safely.
    
    ticket: 8352
