/*
 * Implementation of a time smoothing algorithm to synchronize remote
 * clocks to a local one. Evens out noise, adjusts to clock skew and
 * allows cheap estimations of the remote time while clock updates may
 * be seldom and recieved in non-equidistant intervals.
 *
 * Basically, we estimate the gradient of received clock samples in a
 * certain history window (of size 'history_time') with linear
 * regression. With that info we estimate the remote time in
 * 'adjust_time' ahead and smoothen our current estimation function
 * towards that point with a 3rd order polynomial interpolation with
 * fitting derivatives. (more or less a b-spline)
 *
 * The larger 'history_time' is chosen the better we will surpress
 * noise -- but we'll adjust to clock skew slower..
 *
 * The larger 'adjust_time' is chosen the smoother our estimation
 * function will be -- but we'll adjust to clock skew slower, too.
 *
 * If 'monotonic' is TRUE the resulting estimation function is
 * guaranteed to be monotonic.
