      Comparing the order of Timestamp objects in Python surprisingly does not return the expected answer:

      >>> from bson import Timestamp
>>> Timestamp(2, 1) > Timestamp(1, 1)
False

      These objects represent points in time (for example in the oplog) and there is a strict order (first by .time then by .inc). We should at least support comparing Timestamp objects to each other.
