feat(tools/when): simple time-conversion tool

I often need unix timestamps, or have unix timestamps, or need timestamps at
certain relative offsets etc.

This adds a tool called `when` which can do all of this. It has basically no
user interface, you just call it with a time query and it does it if it
understands what you meant. This will get smarter over time as I find more uses.

Example:

    ~> when yesterday 5PM
    Local: Mon 06 May 2024 at 17:00:00 MSK
    UTC:   2024-05-06T14:00:00Z
    UNIX:  1715004000

It supports all kinds of queries already, see the usage for details.

const usage = `usage: when <time>
This program converts the given time into various formats (currently a local
timestamp, UTC timestamp, and UNIX epoch). It tries to guess what the input is.
Some valid queries:
2024-01-05
1715079241
tomorrow 5PM
-22h
-7h10m
For now a single timestamp and a single duration (which is added either to the
current time, or the given time) is supported.`
