Description

  Similar to TimeofDay, the Time::SuperTimeRange has a number of methods for digging out time parts of the range. Since a SuperTimeRange is a bit more complex - the major reason for its existance it that it contains holes, this calculation is a bit more advanced too.

  If a range contains the seconds, say, 1..2 and 4..5, the third second (number 2, since we start from 0) in the range would be number 4, like this:

      no   means this second
      0    1
      1    2
      2    4      <- second three is missing,
      3    5         as we don't have it in the example range

  number_of_seconds() will in this example therefore also report 4, not 5, even if the time from start of the range to the end of the range is 5 seconds.
