/// A stopwatch which measures time while it's running.
///
/// A stopwatch is either running or stopped.
/// It measures the elapsed time that passes while the stopwatch is running.
///
/// When a stopwatch is initially created, it is stopped and has measured no
/// elapsed time.
///
/// The elapsed time can be accessed in various formats using
/// [elapsed], [elapsedMilliseconds], [elapsedMicroseconds] or [elapsedTicks].
///
/// The stopwatch is started by calling [start].
///
/// Example:
/// ```dart
/// final stopwatch = Stopwatch();
/// print(stopwatch.elapsedMilliseconds); // 0
/// print(stopwatch.isRunning); // false
/// stopwatch.start();
/// print(stopwatch.isRunning); // true
/// ```
/// To stop or pause the stopwatch, use [stop].
/// Use [start] to continue again when only pausing temporarily.
/// ```
/// stopwatch.stop();
/// print(stopwatch.isRunning); // false
/// Duration elapsed = stopwatch.elapsed;
/// await Future.delayed(const Duration(seconds: 1));
/// assert(stopwatch.elapsed == elapsed); // No measured time elapsed.
/// stopwatch.start(); // Continue measuring.
/// ```
/// The [reset] method sets the elapsed time back to zero.
/// It can be called whether the stopwatch is running or not,
/// and doesn't change whether it's running.
/// ```
/// // Do some work.
/// stopwatch.stop();
/// print(stopwatch.elapsedMilliseconds); // Likely > 0.
/// stopwatch.reset();
/// print(stopwatch.elapsedMilliseconds); // 0
/// ```
