Doc Text:	.`chrony` rebased to version 4.2 The `chrony` suite has been updated to version 4.2. Notable enhancements over version 4.1 include: * The server interleaved mode has been improved to be more reliable and supports multiple clients behind a single address translator (Network Address Translation - NAT). * Experimental support for the Network Time Protocol Version 4 (NTPv4) extension field has been added to improve time synchronization stability and precision of estimated errors. You can enable this field, which extends the capabilities of the protocol NTPv4, by using the `extfield F323` option. * Experimental support for NTP forwarding over the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) has been added to enable full hardware timestamping on Network Interface Cards (NIC) that have timestamping limited to PTP packets. You can enable NTP over PTP by using the `ptpport 319` directive.	Story Points:	---
