ParTime: Parallel Temporal Aggregation

Summary: ParTime: data-parallel temporal aggregation on NUMA. Supports bi-temporal data, requires no precomputation/indexing, and exploits shared computation; experiments (airline, TPC-BiH) show gains over prior temporal DBs and competitiveness with Timeline Index.
