BUG/MINOR: stream/cli: fix stream age calculation in "show sess"
The "show sess" command displays the stream's age in synthetic form,
and also makes it appear in the long version (show sess all). But that
last one uses the wrong origin, it uses accept_date.tv_sec instead of
accept_ts (formerly known as tv_accept). This was introduced in 1.4.2
with the long format, with commit 66dc20a17 ("[MINOR] stats socket: add
show sess <id> to dump details about a session"), while the code that
split the two variables was introduced in 1.3.16 with commit b7f694f20
("[MEDIUM] implement a monotonic internal clock"). This problem was
revealed by recent change ad5a5f677 ("MEDIUM: tree-wide: replace timeval
with nanoseconds in tv_accept and tv_request") that made this value report
random garbage, and generally emphasized by the fact that in 2.8 the two
clocks have sufficiently large an offset for such mistakes to be noticeable
early.
Arguably a difference between date and accept_date could also make sense,
to indicate if the stream had been there for more than 49 days, but this
would introduce instabilities for most sockets (including negative times)
for extremely rare cases while the goal is essentially to see how much
longer than a configured timeout a stream has been there. And that's what
other locations (including the short form) provide.
This patch could be backported but most users will never notice. In case
of backport, tv_accept.tv_sec should be used instead of accept_date.tv_sec.
