Timer (elasticsearch-extend 3.2 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.elasticsearch.search.profile.Timer

```
public class Timer
extends Object
```
Helps measure how much time is spent running some methods. The start() and stop() methods should typically be called in a try/finally clause with start() being called right before the try block and stop() being called at the beginning of the finally block:
```
  timer.start();
  try {
    // code to time
  } finally {
    timer.stop();
  }
  
```
