libARA does not compile on MacOSX #130

If you try to compile libARA on MacOSX 10.9 this results in the following error

$ make

The issue is more or less obvious. We have our own notion of time in libARA which is defined in Time.h (and corresponding class Time). Unfortunately, the MacOSX file system is case insensitive, meaning that this conflicts with the existing time.h in /usr/include. Basically we have to rename the header and class to something else in order to avoid this conflict!
