"""``Timer`` displays the elapsed time since the bar started.
Reach for it whenever "how long has this taken so far" matters more
than an estimate of what remains -- unlike the ``ETA`` family, it needs
no ``max_value`` and works just as well for indeterminate work. Compare
``CurrentTime`` for the wall-clock time of day instead of a duration.
This example runs longer than most in this set: elapsed time is only shown
to whole-second resolution, so a bar that finishes in a few milliseconds
would read "Elapsed Time: 0:00:00" for its entire run -- the one thing this
widget exists to show would never move.
