I see that "latched_count" holds the captured counter count; would this
"latched_time" hold the captured unit timer time? If so, does that mean
setting the latch mode to "Unit timeout" always results in a
"latched_time" equal to 0 (assuming that's when the timeout event
triggers)?

It seems more appropriate to move this alongside "latched_count" as
Count extension because this is setting the trigger mode to latch the
respective Count's count. Or does this particular extension also affect
the "latched_time" capture for the unit timer?
