Faster time_value.rb

The multiplication of the value takes a long time when we can instead mutate and use the string value directly.

The `microsec` perf increases speed by 27% in the ideal case (which is the most common).

```
original_string = ".443959"

require 'benchmark/ips'

Benchmark.ips do |x|
  x.report("multiply") { 
    string = original_string.dup
    (string.to_r * 1_000_000).to_i 
  }
  x.report("new     ") { 
    string = original_string.dup
    if string && string.start_with?(".".freeze) && string.length == 7
      string[0] = ''.freeze
      string.to_i
    end
  }
  x.compare!
end
