// to optimize it into a branchless form (see also #75545):
//
// 1. `self.t.tv_sec - other.t.tv_sec` shows up as a common expression
// in both branches, i.e. the `else` must have its `- 1`
// subtraction after the common one, not interleaved with it
// (it used to be `self.t.tv_sec - 1 - other.t.tv_sec`)
//
// 2. the `Duration::new` call (or any other additional complexity)
// is outside of the `if`-`else`, not duplicated in both branches
//
// Ideally this code could be rearranged such that it more
// directly expresses the lower-cost behavior we want from it.
