- Changed scheduler busylooping method, and decreased precision to 5 minutes:
if there are finite-horizon events in the queue, the scheduler thread will never
sleep longer than that. This is to quickly get back on track with the schedule
when the computer wakes up from sleep, if the sleep monitor is not working or
is not implemented for the particular operating system. However, if there are
only infinite-horizon events in the queue (meaning, DreamTime-scheduled events,
and the system is sleeping or "sleeping"), the scheduler will also sleep.
Hopefully this will also help the system stay properly asleep.

- Part 2 of handling macOS sleep/wake signal brokenness.
a) Added Time.horizon(), which indicates how far the Time event is from the
epoch, in monotonic time. For DreamTime, if the system is sleeping, this
returns ∞. b) The DreamTime monitor also signals sleep to callbacks, so
that the Scheduler can re-sort the events. The sorting is now done by
the horizon, so DreamTime events will be moved last and not activated when
the system is sleeping or "sleeping", but other events will be executed
normally if the system is merely "sleeping".

- macOS "sleep" signals / status are complete bollocks:
at least when plugged in, the system is actually sometimes running all
night with the lid closed and sleepNotification delivered. Therefore,
we need our timers to work in a sane manner when we should be sleeping!
This patch is a first stage of this fix, implementing stopped dreamtime.
It also has improved comparisons of different types of time, based on
snapshotting.
