jack_frame_time() reads the current time from Jack's usecs timer,
subtracts the cycle start time estimated by the PLL, converts the
difference to frames, and adds the frame count at the start of the
current cycle (which is jack_last_frame_time()).

The changes do not modify any part of the API, they add to it.
