Struct RealTimeInstant

sealed struct RealTimeInstant
Represents a point in time in the system’s clock. Useful for talking to external entities like the file system or other processes. Distinct from the MonotonicInstant type, this time measurement is not monotonic. This means that you can save a file to the file system, then save another file to the file system, and the second file has a RealTime measurement earlier than the first. In other words, an operation that happens after another operation in real world may have an earlier RealTimeInstant. This is identical to Posix CLOCK_REALTIME.
