Latch the UTC offset.

When acting as a slave, we accept the foreign master's advertised
TAI-UTC offset for as long as that master is present.  However, when
the master disappears, we fall back to the initial offset value.  As a
result of this behavior, when starting with an out of date initial
offset, losing a foreign master causes a sudden UTC offset error (in
phc2sys for example) in the range of whole seconds.

This patch fixes the issue by remembering the UTC offset when assuming
the slave role.
