In a uuidd setup, the daemon is a singleton and can maintain it's own
resources for time based UUID generation. This requires a dedicated
'clock sequence range' but does not need any further lock/update of
the LIBUUID_CLOCK_FILE from uuidd. The range of available clock values
is extended by a continuous handling of the clock updates - instead of
updating the value to the current timestamp, it is incremented by
the number of requested UUIDs.
---
Updated version
cont clock handling needs to be activated with '-C' or '--cont-clock'.
default value of max_clock_offset is 7200 seconds.
custom value of max_clock_offset can be defined by optional argument.
maximum value of max_clock_offest is 365 days.

+Activate continuous clock handling for time based UUIDs. *uuidd* could use all possible clock values, beginning with the daemon's start time. The optional argument can be used to set a value for the max_clock_offset. This gurantees, that a clock value of a UUID will always be within the range of the max_clock_offset. '-C' or '--cont-clock' enables the feature with a default max_clock_offset of 2 hours. '-C<NUM>[hd]' or '--cont-clock=<NUM>[hd]' enables the feature with a max_clock_offset of NUM seconds. In case of an appended h or d, the NUM value is read in hours or days. The minimum value is 60 seconds, the maximum value is 365 days.
