[Bug 12339] We should mention that UAs may use a different clock than the wall clock for defining the rate of time in the media timeline, specifically so that they are allowed to use the soundcard clock to ensure reliable audio playback.

Checked in as WHATWG revision r5976.
Check-in comment: Allow non-wall-clock clocks for media playback, since in
practice UAs sync things to the soundcard's ring buffer, or similar, to avoid
stuttering.
