pcap_get_tstamp_type() does not exist

Hello all.
A pull request today reminded me of an API gap I noticed in 2024 whilst
preparing commit 160ab11. The "datalink" group of functions provides a
means to enumerate values, to translate a number to a name and back, to
set and to query the current value, which makes sense. The "tstamp"
group of functions is similar, except it does not provide a means to
query the current value, in other words, pcap_get_tstamp_type() does
not exist.
I vaguely remember discussing this before, but could not find any
previous e-mails, so let me raise this again. Is there a good reason
not to add this function?
