More efficient DateTime field #2

Open ts5746 opened 5 years ago

ts5746 commented 5 years ago

The current 7 bytes in the compressed encoding is not the most efficient for the DateTime field (see par. 4.3.1.1 of the specification). If the number of seconds since 1-1-2016 is used, 4 bytes are enough till 2150.
