The test timeuuid_test.py::testTimeuuid sporadically failed, and it turns out
the reason was a bug in the test - which this patch fixes.
The buggy test created a timeuuid and then compared the time stored in it
to the result of the dateOf() CQL function. The problem is that dateOf()
returns a CQL "timestamp", which has millisecond resolution, while the
timeuuid *may* have finer than millisecond resolution. The reason why this
test rarely failed is that in our implementation, the timeuuid almost
always gets a millisecond-resolution timestamp. Only if now() gets called
more than once in one millisecond, does it pick a higher time incremented
by less than a millisecond.
What this patch does is to truncate the time read from the timeuuid to
millisecond resolution, and only then compare it to the result of dateOf().
We cannot hope for more.
