If: * hardware timestamping is supported, and * we don't want to synchronize CLOCK_TAI/REALTIME to PTP ( #380 , #389 ), and * we are operating either as a PTP slave only, or in an arbitrary timescale, and * statime daemon is using only one PHC it doesn't make sense to run the `clock_task`. When other apps need the clock, they can open `/dev/ptp` and read it directly. Could be useful for PipeWire AES67 and simpler and more precise than #389 . This mode would be a configuration option.
