ChuckBuildsandClaude Opus 5 dab4b3ea57 fix: use a monotonic clock and only mark metrics persisted once written
Two review findings on the throttle, both right.

The interval compared wall-clock timestamps. These devices have no RTC, so
the clock jumps by however far off boot-time was the moment NTP first syncs
-- a forward jump would allow an early write, a backward one would stall the
snapshot well past the interval. time.monotonic() is not subject to either.

The timestamp was also recorded before cache_manager.set(). A set() that
raised would buy the next interval's silence without leaving a snapshot
behind, which is the one case where skipping the write is least affordable.
Recorded after the write lands instead, so a failure is retried on the next
call.

Verified by restoring the original ordering: the new test then reports one
write where two are expected.
