Description

What:

When the ETSI EPOCH zero-timestamp (zero, 0) is converted back to UNIX time, None is returned.

Expected:

The ETSI EPOCH zero-timestamp is converted back into the UNIX timestamp corresponding to 2004-01-01T00:00:00Z.

Note: it is not valid to convert an unknown timsteamp (i.e. None) in either direction. Indeed, the TimestampIts has no encoding that specifies it is unknown or unavailabe or whatever; it is always a valid timestamp.
