 * Alternative to Cell that have an expiring time.

 *
 * Note that ExpiringCell does not override Cell.getMarkedForDeleteAt,
 * which means that it's in the somewhat unintuitive position of being deleted (after its expiration)
 * without having a time-at-which-it-became-deleted.  (Because ttl is a server-side measurement,
 * we can't mix it with the timestamp field, which is client-supplied and whose resolution we
 * can't assume anything about.)
