There was a problem hiding this comment.
I'm going to merge this patch now and do some post merge review.
For example, I don't know why we should depend on mea and we may try to vendor the future we need from slab.
The API may be improved, as well.
But as a bootstrap I'd like to merge this patch first.

This PR provides an initial implementation of the timer context described in #1.
The timer side starts with a reactor-oriented design instead of a standalone runtime-agnostic abstraction, since a timing wheel and driver effectively form a timer reactor. In this direction,
delay_untilis the runtime-dependent primitive, while delays, timeouts, intervals, and scheduled actions can be composed on top of it. Timer capability is passed explicitly throughTimerContextinstead of relying on a Tokio-style current handle.Summary
TimerDriverand cloneableTimerContext, with bounded turns and replaceable reactor wake registrationDelayfutures and report driver closure separately from deadline expirationtimeoutandtimeout_at, intervals withBurst,Delay, andSkipbehavior, and three non-spawning scheduling helpersCloses #1.
