Add mocks to NodeJS "timers" module

[swenzel-arc]

Purpose (TL;DR) - mandatory

Fix issue #466

Solution

It works like this:

Try to import timers module as timersModule. If it doesn't work, that's okay.

Upon FakeTimers.install(), iff we're installing on the globalObject and timersModule was successfully imported: For each property that was mocked on the globalObject iff it also exists on timersModule: Safe its name and original value from timersModule to a new property on the Clock object. Then set it to the same property as the faked property on globalObject.

Upon FakeTimers.uninstall(), iff the object holding timersModule's originals is truthy: For each entry set the corresponding property back to the original.

All done :)
Btw. do you think we should add a config flag that allows to skip altering the timers module?

No but that's a good point, it should respect the regular "should I mock setTimeout/setInterval or whatever" option (toFake)

[swenzel-arc]

Does it correctly not mock methods if they're not part of toFake?

Yes it does :)

Out as 10.2.0

Seems like #470 made a good candidate for why this could have been behind a flag. Some weird regression hitting us.
