Description

This class represents a standard set of capabilities for all counted time durations. Time duration implementations should derive from this class passing their type as the first template parameter. This design allows the subclass duration types to provide custom construction policies or other custom features not provided here.

`time_duration` public construct/copy/destruct

```
time_duration();
```

time_duration(hour_type hours_in, min_type minutes_in, 
              sec_type seconds_in = 0, 
              fractional_seconds_type frac_sec_in = 0);

time_duration(const time_duration< T, rep_type > & other);

Construct from another time_duration (Copy constructor).

```
time_duration(special_values sv);
```
Construct from special_values.
```
time_duration(impl_type in);
```
