Synchronous Timers

This module exposes the functionality to create timers, block the current task,
and create ports which will receive notifications after a period of time.

# Example

```rust,ignore

use std::io::Timer;

let mut timer = Timer::new().unwrap();
timer.sleep(10); // block the task for awhile

let timeout = timer.oneshot(10);
// do some work
timeout.recv(); // wait for the timeout to expire

let periodic = timer.periodic(10);
loop {
    periodic.recv();
    // this loop is only executed once every 10ms
}

```
