Brooks Davis bc9d299133 Change the definition of struct if_data's member ifi_epoch from wall
clock time to uptime because wall clock time may go backwards.

This is a change in the API which will impact SNMP agents who are using
ifi_epoch to set RFC2233's ifCounterDiscontinuityTime.  None are know to
exist today.  This will not impact applications that are using the
<index, epoch> tuple to verify interface uniqueness except that it
eliminates a race which could lead to a false assumption of uniqueness.

Because this is a behavior change, bump __FreeBSD_version.
