    timer: add stopwatch construct
    
    There's a lot of places where expiration and running time are
    open coded. Allow for those places to be simplified by adding
    a stopwatch construct. The stopwatch can have an expiration or
    just be used to accumulate time.
    
    BUG=None
    TEST=Built and verified API works as expected by using implementation.
