Description
https://github.com/docker/docker-py/blob/master/docker/api/container.py#L845
This discards any microseconds from datetime while the API allows floats to be sent with the same precision as shown in the timestamps of the output (10^-9).
Even if datetime only keeps 10^-9, it'd still be nice to use that precision instead of just seconds.

Research direction
Review docker/api/container.py around line 845 and trace how the container logs time value is constructed from datetime. Confirm the API's supported fractional precision and ensure the completed change preserves more than whole seconds; verify the resulting request or log timestamp behavior with the relevant existing checks.
