Remarks
Compares this date-time to another date-time, including the chronology.
The comparison is based first on the underlying time-line date-time, then on the chronology. It is "consistent with equals", as defined by Comparable.
For example, the following is the comparator order: <ol> <li>2012-12-03T12:00 (ISO)</li> <li>2012-12-04T12:00 (ISO)</li> <li>2555-12-04T12:00 (ThaiBuddhist)</li> <li>2012-12-05T12:00 (ISO)</li> </ol> Values #2 and #3 represent the same date-time on the time-line. When two values represent the same date-time, the chronology ID is compared to distinguish them. This step is needed to make the ordering "consistent with equals".
If all the date-time objects being compared are in the same chronology, then the additional chronology stage is not required and only the local date-time is used.
This default implementation performs the comparison defined above.
