struct
   Crystal::EventLoop::Timers(T)
  
  
  Overview
List of Pointer(T) to T structs.
Internally wraps a PointerPairingHeap(T) and thus requires that T
implements PointerPairingHeap::Node.
Thread unsafe: parallel accesses must be protected!
NOTE this is a struct because it only wraps a const pointer to an object allocated in the heap.

Instance Method Summary
- 
        #add(event : Pointer(T)) : Bool
        
          Add a new timer into the list. 
- 
        #delete(event : Pointer(T)) : Tuple(Bool, Bool)
        
          Remove a timer from the list. 
- 
        #dequeue_ready(& : Pointer(T) -> Nil) : Nil
        
          Dequeues and yields each ready timer (their #wake_atis lower thanSystem::Time.monotonic) from the oldest to the most recent (i.e.
- #empty? : Bool
- 
        #next_ready? : Time::Span | Nil
        
          Returns the time of the next ready timer (if any).

  Constructor Detail
Instance Method Detail
Add a new timer into the list. Returns true if it is the next ready timer.
Remove a timer from the list. Returns a tuple(dequeued, was_next_ready) of booleans. The first bool tells whether the event was dequeued, in which case the second one tells if it was the next ready event.
Dequeues and yields each ready timer (their #wake_at is lower than
System::Time.monotonic) from the oldest to the most recent (i.e. time
ascending).
