Ichthyostega 4d79bdce5f Timeline: sophisticated helper function to resolve problems with numeric precision
While the calculation was already basically under control, I just was not content
with the achieved numeric precision -- and the fact that the test case in fact
misses the bar, making it difficult do demonstrate that the calculation
is not derailed. I just had the gut feeling that it must be somehow possible
to achieve an absolute error level, not just a relative error level of 1e-6

Thus I reworked this part into a generic helper function, see #1262

The end result is:
 * partial failure. we can only ''guarantee'' the relative error margin of 1e-6
 * but in most cases not out to the most extreme numbers, the sophisticated
   solution achieves much better results way below the absolute error level of 1µ-Tick

Thus with using rational numbers, we have now a solution that is absolutely precise
in the regular case, and gradually introduces errors at the domain bound
but with an guaranteed relative error margin of 1e-6 (== Time::SCALE)
