/*----------------------------------------------------------------------
 * nsSMILTimeValue class
 *
 * A tri-state time value.
 *
 * First a quick overview of the SMIL time data types:
 *
 * nsSMILTime          -- a timestamp in milliseconds.
 * nsSMILTimeValue     -- (this class) a timestamp that can take the additional
 *                        states 'indefinite' and 'unresolved'
 * nsSMILInterval      -- a pair of nsSMILTimeValues that defines a begin and an
 *                        end point.
 * nsSMILInstanceTime  -- an nsSMILTimeValue used for constructing intervals. It
 *                        contains additional fields to govern reset behavior.
 *                        It also forms an anchor for establishing syncbase
 *                        relationships.
 * nsSMILTimeValueSpec -- a component of a begin or end attribute, such as the
 *                        '5s' or 'a.end+2m' in begin="5s; a.end+2m". These
 *                        objects produce nsSMILInstanceTimes and are also used
 *                        in managing dependent relationships between
 *                        animations.
 *
 * Objects of this class may be in one of three states:
 *
 * 1) The time is resolved and has a millisecond value
 * 2) The time is indefinite
 * 3) The time in unresolved
 *
 * There is considerable chance for confusion with regards to the indefinite
 * state. Is it resolved? We adopt the convention that it is NOT resolved (but
 * nor is it unresolved). This simplifies implementation as you can then write:
 *
 * if (time.IsResolved())
 *    x = time.GetMillis()
 *
 * instead of:
 *
 * if (time.IsResolved() && !time.IsIndefinite())
 *    x = time.GetMillis()
 *
 * Testing if a time is unresolved becomes more complicated but this is tested
 * much less often.
 *
 * In summary:
 *
 * State         |  GetMillis         |  IsResolved        |  IsIndefinite
 * --------------+--------------------+--------------------+-------------------
 * Resolved      |  The millisecond   |  PR_TRUE           |  PR_FALSE
 *               |  time              |                    |
 * --------------+--------------------+--------------------+-------------------
 * Indefinite    |  LL_MAXINT         |  PR_FALSE          |  PR_TRUE
 * --------------+--------------------+--------------------+-------------------
 * Unresolved    |  LL_MAXINT         |  PR_FALSE          |  PR_FALSE
 *
