/**
 * An object that accurately measures <i>elapsed time</i>: the measured duration between two
 * successive readings of "now" in the same process.
 *
 * <p>In contrast, <i>wall time</i> is a reading of "now" as given by a method like
 * {@link System#currentTimeMillis()}, best represented as an {@link Instant}. Such values
 * <i>can</i> be subtracted to obtain a {@code Duration} (such as by {@code Duration.between}), but
 * doing so does <i>not</i> give a reliable measurement of elapsed time, because wall time readings
 * are inherently approximate, routinely affected by periodic clock corrections. Because this class
 * (by default) uses {@link System#nanoTime}, it is unaffected by these changes.
 *
 * <p>Use this class instead of direct calls to {@link System#nanoTime} for two reasons:
 *
 * <ul>
 *   <li>The raw {@code long} values returned by {@code nanoTime} are meaningless and unsafe to use
 *       in any other way than how {@code Stopwatch} uses them.
 *   <li>An alternative source of nanosecond ticks can be substituted, for example for testing or
 *       performance reasons, without affecting most of your code.
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>Basic usage:
 *
 * <pre>{@code
 * Stopwatch stopwatch = Stopwatch.createStarted();
 * doSomething();
 * stopwatch.stop(); // optional
 *
 * Duration duration = stopwatch.elapsed();
 *
 * log.info("time: " + stopwatch); // formatted string like "12.3 ms"
 * }</pre>
 *
 * <p>The state-changing methods are not idempotent; it is an error to start or stop a stopwatch
 * that is already in the desired state.
 *
 * <p>When testing code that uses this class, use {@link #createUnstarted(Ticker)} or {@link
 * #createStarted(Ticker)} to supply a fake or mock ticker. This allows you to simulate any valid
 * behavior of the stopwatch.
 *
 * <p><b>Note:</b> This class is not thread-safe.
 *
 * <p><b>Warning for Android users:</b> a stopwatch with default behavior may not continue to keep
 * time while the device is asleep. Instead, create one like this:
 *
 * <pre>{@code
 * Stopwatch.createStarted(
 *      new Ticker() {
 *        public long read() {
 *          return android.os.SystemClock.elapsedRealtimeNanos();
 *        }
 *      });
 * }</pre>
