At one point, we looked into outfitting the UHD source block to read the
packet metadata from the USRPs and send a tag when we saw a new time stamp.
We took it out for efficiency reasons, but I think you could make another
class like gr-uhd/lib/gr_uhd_source_tagged or something like that. Look at
the metadata in the UHD packets, see if the timestamp is valid (there's a
flag for that), and then you can extract the time and make it a new tag.
