    Make test_refresh_associations_* deterministic
    
    There are two tests: test_refresh_associations_time and
    test_refresh_associations_disabled which override time.time() in most
    places to assert behaviors depending on elapsed time, however there is
    one place where it is not overridden and if the test happens to run
    slowly in the gate, the delta between the recorded "now" timestamp and
    the refresh run timestamp will be larger than expected and cause the
    test assertion to fail.

  AssertionError: Expected '_get_inventory' to be called once. Called 0 times.

  
  I found this is because though most of the use of time.time() in the refresh associations code was mocked in the test, there is one spot where it is not mocked and if the test happens to run slowly, the delta between the recorded "now" and the refresh run timestamp will be larger than expected and cause the test assertion to fail.

  I think this can be fixed by mocking the remaining call of
  time.time().
