Returns an integer string rendering of the time element of the uuid.

Notes
this function has nothing to do with the uuid.version attribute, it is used to populate the version field of a resqml citation block; the time component of the uuid is the number of 100ns periods that have elapsed since October 1582 (when the Gregorian calendar was adopted), as a 60 bit integer
