[Chicken-hackers] An alternative internal time type.

[Jörg F. Wittenberger]

Hi,

the attached patch adds initial support for an alternative internal time
representation.  (Keeps the default as "double".)

The idea is to ease future porting and special use cases.  (E.g., maybe
run on ARM Cortex-M, which does not like floats and divisions.)

NB: From this patch I learned that `make check` prefers the installed
repository over the test-repository it creates.  Thus `make check` will
fail in rather arbitrary ways if an incompatible version is installed.

Best
