/*
A timer using setTimeout that compensates for drift. Drift can happen for several reasons:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope/setTimeout#reasons_for_delays

This means the timer may very well be late in executing the next call (but never early).
This timer is accurate to within a few ms for any amount of time provided. It's meant to be utilized as a Web Worker.
