Detailed Description

A structure representing a single instance of a timer.

Timer management:

• Create a struct osmo_timer_list
• Fill out timeout and use add_timer or use osmo_timer_schedule to schedule a timer in x seconds and microseconds from now...
• Use osmo_timer_del to remove the timer

Internally:

• We hook into select.c to give a timeval of the nearest timer. On already passed timers we give it a 0 to immediately fire after the select
• osmo_timers_update will call the callbacks and remove the timers.
