* @addtogroup GTIMER
*
* @brief Module which provides software based timers for user-space applications
*
* @details The reason why uGFX has it's own timer abstraction is because
* virtual timers provided by ChibiOS/RT are interrupt context only.
* While great for what they are designed for, they make coding of the input
* drivers much more complex.
* For non-performance critical drivers like these input drivers, it would also
* hog an in-ordinate amount of critical (interrupt locked) system time.
* This contrary to the goals of a real-time operating system. So a user-land
* (thread based) timer mechanism is also required.
*
* @pre GFX_USE_GTIMER must be set to GFXON in your gfxconf.h
*

* @param[in] periodic Is the timer a periodic timer? gFalse is a once-only timer.
* @param[in] millisec The timer period. The following special values are allowed:
* gDelayNone causes the callback function to be called asap.
* A periodic timer with this value will fire once only.
* gDelayForever never timeout (unless triggered by gtimerJab or gtimerJabI)
*
* @note If the timer is already active its properties are updated with the new parameters.
* The current period will be immediately canceled (without the callback function being
* called) and the timer will be restart with the new timer properties.
* @note The callback function should be careful not to over-run the thread stack.
* Define a new value for the macro GTIME_THREAD_STACK_SIZE if you want to
* change the default size.
* @note The callback function should return as quickly as possible as all
* timer callbacks are performed by a single thread. If a callback function
* takes too long it could affect the timer response for other timers.
* @note A timer callback function is not a replacement for a dedicated thread if the
* function wants to perform computationally expensive stuff.
* @note As the callback function is called on GTIMER's thread, the function must make sure it uses
* appropriate synchronisation controls such as semaphores or mutexes around any data
* structures it shares with other threads such as the main application thread.
