This is a simplified rate limiter geared for exactly our needs:
A fast, mono.Time-based rate limiter for use in tstun.
It was generated by stripping down the x/time/rate rate limiter
to just our needs and switching it to use mono.Time.
It removes one time.Now call per packet.

Package mono provides a fast monotonic time.
Its primary advantage is that it is fast:
It is approximately twice as fast as time.Now.
This is because time.Now uses two clock calls,
one for wall time and one for monotonic time.
We ask for the current time 4-6 times per network packet.
At ~50ns per call to time.Now, that's enough to show
up in CPU profiles.
Package mono is a first step towards addressing that.
It is designed to be a near drop-in replacement for package time.

Go's time.Parse always allocates a FixedZone for time strings not in
UTC (ending in "Z"). This avoids that allocation, at the cost of
adding a cache.
