/**
 Utility class for measuring the time spent on an operation.

 You can use `CDVTimer` to measure named operations, and it will print the
 elapsed time to the application log upon completion of the operation. This
 allows for simple benchmarking of potentially expensive operations like plugin
 loading and initialization.

 At the start of an operation, call ``start:`` with a unique name, then when the
 operation finishes, call ``stop:`` with the same name:

 @TabNavigator {
    @Tab("Swift") {
        ```swift
        CDVTimer.start("ExpensiveOperation")

        doExpensiveOperation();

        CDVTimer.stop("ExpensiveOperation")
        ```
    }
    @Tab("Objective-C") {
        ```objc
        [CDVTimer start:@"ExpensiveOperation"];

        doExpensiveOperation();

        [CDVTimer stop:@"ExpensiveOperation"];
        ```
    }
 }

    @Available(Cordova, introduced: "2.7.0")
