JavaScript Timers

Implements intrinsic JavaScript timers, at the familiar symbols setTimeout and setInterval; each method starts a timer task which is dispatched after a specified delay. Interval timers repeat their execution until canceled, while regular one-shot timers execute only once.

Note that parameters are reversed for the host-side versions of these methods. JavaScript setTimeout takes the callback value first, for example, and the delay second; setTimeout takes the delay first so that the callback can use Kotlin's lambda syntax.
