Fix log granularity based on Nick's comments.
Instead of rejecting a value that doesn't divide into 1 second, round to the nearest divisor of 1 second and warn. Document that the option only controls the granularity written by Tor to a file or console log. It does not (for example) "batch up" log messages to affect times logged by a controller, times attached to syslog messages, or the mtime fields on log files.
