Add a time variable with integer values for evenly sampled data

1	make_integer_times(data, period = NULL, tol = 1e-06)

`data`	dataset to modify
`period`	period to check the times against (if `NULL`, first check to see if there is a known `period` set in the metadata, otherwise assumes 1)
`tol`	tolerance for the period

First, check if the data are evenly sampled in time. If not, we exit early. Next, if the times are already integer or Date, we don't do anything. If the times are numeric, but roundable to integer, we round. Otherwise, we add a new variable to covariates from 1:n and designate this variable as the timename.
