There's already a "get_time_now" method swigged in the
gr_uhd_usrp_{source,sink} block, along with a "get_time_last_pps" method if you
need to synchronize to an absolute time.

For get_time_now(), would I need to swig multi_usrp.hpp?

Stream command is not swigged because the control of streaming is part
of gnuradio's scheduler. So start() and stop() get automatically called
by the scheduler. For convenience this is a set_command_time() to
control stream_cmd.time_spec.
Basically, gnuradio is handling the streaming for you. Think block-based
streaming model.

This part is swigged.
