The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a straightforward internal cleanup: it changes how Bitcoin Core stores the moment a peer connected, switching from a coarse 'whole seconds since 1970' value to a richer clock type that can carry finer precision. The change touches many files but only rewrites type declarations and conversions; it does not alter network rules, consensus logic, or security behavior. There is no indication this fixes or introduces a vulnerability.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal code-quality refactor during review/merge.
