Merge remote-tracking branch 'tor-github/pr/1211' into test31343_040

changes/bug31343

+  o Minor bugfixes (compilation):
+    - Avoid using labs() on time_t, which can cause compilation warnings
+      on 64-bit Windows builds.  Fixes bug 31343; bugfix on 0.2.4.4-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (clock skew detection):
+    - Don't believe clock skew results from NETINFO cells that appear to
+      arrive before the VERSIONS cells they are responding to were sent.
+      Previously, we would accept them up to 3 minutes "in the past".
+      Fixes bug 31343; bugfix on 0.2.4.4-alpha.
