/**
 * The TimestampAligner class helps translating camera timestamps into the same timescale as is
 * used by rtc::TimeNanos(). Some cameras have built in timestamping which is more accurate than
 * reading the system clock, but using a different epoch and unknown clock drift. Frame timestamps
 * in webrtc should use rtc::TimeNanos (system monotonic time), and this class provides a filter
 * which lets us use the rtc::TimeNanos timescale, and at the same time take advantage of higher
 * accuracy of the camera clock. This class is a wrapper on top of rtc::TimestampAligner.
