 * C++11 timer component
 * =====================
 *
 * A portable, header-only C++11 timer component.
 *
 * Overview
 * --------
 *
 * This component can be used to manage a set of timeouts. It is implemented in
 * pure C++11. It is therefore very portable given a compliant compiler.
 *
 * A timeout can be added with one of the `add` functions, and removed with the
 * `remove` function. A timeout can be either one-shot or periodic. In case a
 * timeout is one-shot, the callback is invoked once and the timeout event is
 * then automatically removed. If the timer is periodic, it is never
 * automatically removed, but always renewed.
 *
 * Removing a timeout is possible even from within the callback.
 *
 * Timeout Units
 * -------------
 *
 * The preferred functions for adding timeouts are those that take a
 * `std::chrono::...` argument. However, for convenience, there is also an API
 * that takes a uint64_t. When using this API, all values are expected to be
 * given in microseconds (us).
 *
 * For periodic timeouts, a separate timeout can be specified for the initial
 * (first) timeout, and the periodicity after that.
 *
 * To avoid drifts, times are added by simply adding the period to the intially
 * calculated (or provided) time. Also, we use `wait until` type of API to wait
 * for a timeout instead of a `wait for` API.
 *
 * Data Structure
 * --------------
 *
 * Internally, a std::vector is used to store timeout events. The timer_id
 * returned from the `add` functions are used as index to this vector.
 *
 * In addition, a std::multiset is used that holds all time points when
 * timeouts expire.
 *
 * Using a vector to store timeout events has some implications. It is very
 * fast to remove an event, because the timer_id is the vector's index. On the
 * other hand, this makes it also more complicated to manage the timer_ids. The
 * current solution is to keep track of ids that are freed in order to re-use
 * them. A stack is used for this.
 *
 * Examples
 * --------
 *
 * More examples can be found in the `tests` folder.
 *
 * ~~~
 * CppTime::Timer t;
 * t.add(std::chrono::seconds(1), [](CppTime::timer_id){ std::cout << "got it!"; });
 * std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(2));
 * ~~~
