    Description

          This was pretty easy to do, but FYI lnav (and probably other programs) no longer natively understood the timestamps the way they did before. This may not be a problem at all.. but if tools are used to parse and use any of these timestamps, it could potentially pose a problem. So I can merge this if we can decide it's worth potentially breaking existing tools and scripts. If we don't really think there are tools and scripts that care – it does make it easier to correlate very precise times across different log files.

          Decided among the team it's too destructive to add this because it will mess with third-party tools that parse logs.
