Description

We should provide an application-wide reference for a time reflecting "now" because:

  • code using time() and comparing values with other parts of the application might, in an edge case, end up with different times, although they both mean "now"
  • testing code which uses time() or new \DateTime() is cumbersome or sometimes not possible

[FEATURE] Introduce "Now" as unique time reference

This patch introduces a new class called "Now" which
inherits DateTime and has the scope Singleton. It can
be used in all cases where a reliably comparable value
of "now" is needed or where time needs to be mocked
in related tests.
