  /* Timer

     Cross-platform timeout handling.  The caller creates instances of Timer and passes a
     Callback implementation to each.  The Callback will then be called with a pointer to
     the Timer instance that timed-out when the timeout occurs.

     The static methods of Timer are used by the main loop of the application both to
     dispatch elapsed Timer callbacks and to determine how long to wait in select() for
     the next timeout to occur.
