 * lttng_create_session API call, we have no clue on the session daemon side if
 * the URL was generated automatically by the client or define by the user.
 *
 * So this function "wrapper" is hidden from the public API, takes the datetime
 * string and appends it if necessary to the URI subdirectory before sending it
 * to the session daemon.
 *
 * With this extra function, the lttng_create_session call behavior is not
 * changed and the timestamp is appended to the URI on the session daemon side
 * if necessary.
