time: add Round and Truncate
New in Go 1 will be nanosecond precision in the result of time.Now on Linux.
This will break code that stores time in external formats at microsecond
precision, reads it back, and expects to get exactly the same time.
Code like that can be fixed by using time.Now().Round(time.Microsecond)
instead of time.Now() in those contexts.

+time
+
+On Linux, previous versions of the time package returned times with
+microsecond precision. The Go 1.1 implementation of time on Linux now returns times with
+nanosecond precision. Code may exist that expects to be able to store
+such a time in an external format with only microsecond precision,
+read it back, and recover exactly the same time instant.
+In Go 1.1 the same time will not be recovered, since the external storage
+will have discarded nanoseconds.
+To address this case, there are two new methods of time.Time, Round and Truncate,
+that can be used to remove precision from a time before passing it to
+external storage.
