We have reports of runtime panics (linkerd/linkerd2#7748) that sound a
lot like rust-lang/rust#86470. We don't have any evidence that these
panics originate in tower, but we have some potentialy flawed Instant
arithmetic that could panic in this way.

Even though this is almost definitely a bug in Rust, it seems most
prudent to actively avoid the uses of Instant that are prone to this
bug.

This change replaces uses of Instant::elapsed and Instant::sub with
calls to Instant::saturating_duration_since to prevent this class of
panic. These fixes should ultimately be made in the standard library,
but this change lets us avoid this problem while we wait for those
fixes.

# 0.4.12 (February 16, 2022)

### Fixed

- **hedge**, **load**, **retry**: Fix use of `Instant` operations that
  can panic on platforms where `Instant` is not monotonic ([#633])
- Disable `attributes` feature on `tracing` dependency ([#623])
- Remove unused dependencies and dependency features with some feature
  combinations ([#603], [#602])
- **docs**: Fix a typo in the RustDoc for `Buffer` ([#622])

### Changed

- **hedge**: Updated `hdrhistogram` dependency to v7.0 ([#602])
- Updated `tokio-util` dependency to v0.7 ([#638])
