Merged

Conversation
The TSA now keeps stamping for a grace window after the last good time sync. Document the max_sync_age_seconds, max_drift_ppm and max_clock_error_ms limits, their defaults, the refusal status strings and the rule that max_clock_error_ms may not exceed accuracy_ms.

What and why
The node's TSA now trusts its clock for a grace window after the last good time sync instead of refusing on the first failed poll. This documents the change on the TSA machine-config reference and the TSA how-to:
max_sync_age_seconds(default 3600, at most 86400),max_drift_ppm(default 100, at most 500) andmax_clock_error_ms(defaultaccuracy_ms), with theirconfig applyerrors.max_clock_error_msmay not exceedaccuracy_ms.timeNotAvailabletroubleshooting entry links to the new section.Merge after CryptOS-PKI/cryptos-node#357.
