[Click] Patch for nanosecond scheduling precision in ns-3-click

[Sascha Alexander Jopen]

Hey Lalith,

i didn't test your changes yet, but after a quick review, i think on ns3
side it is still necessary to have the distinction of the simulator
precision in GetTimevalFromNow. The simulator could still have pico- or
femtosecond precision, which would lead to the same rounding errors.

I will test your changes next week and report back then.

Regards,
Sascha
