/**
 * This API provides functions for performing performance measurement
 * There are 3 main usage scenarios.
 * i) Loop until a threshold time is reached:
 *    Example:
 *    <code>
 *      typedef Params Params;
 *      struct Params{
 *          UChar* target;
 *          int32_t targetLen;
 *          const UChar* source;
 *          int32_t sourceLen;
 *          UNormalizationMode mode;
 *      }
 *      void NormFn( void* param){
 *          Params* parameters = ( Params*) param;
 *          UErrorCode error = U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *          unorm_normalize(parameters->source, parameters->sourceLen, parameters->mode, 0, parameters->target, parameters->targetLen, &error);
 *          if(U_FAILURE(error)){
 *              printf("Normalization failed\n");
 *          }
 *      }
 *  
 *      int main(){
 *          // time the normalization function 
 *          double timeTaken = 0;
 *          Params param;
 *          param.source  // set up the source buffer 
 *          param.target   // set up the target buffer
 *          .... so on ...
 *          UTimer timer;
 *          // time the loop for 10 seconds at least and find out the loop count and time taken
 *          timeTaken = utimer_loopUntilDone((double)10,(void*) param, NormFn, &loopCount);
 *      }
 *     </code>
 *
 * ii) Measure the time taken
 *     Example:
 *     <code>
 *      double perfNormalization(NormFn fn,const char* mode,Line* fileLines,int32_t loopCount){
 *          int  line;
 *          int  loops;
 *          UErrorCode error = U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *          UChar* dest=NULL;
 *          int32_t destCapacity=0;
 *          int len =-1;
 *          double elapsedTime = 0; 
 *          int retVal=0;
 *
 *          UChar arr[5000];
 *          dest=arr;
 *          destCapacity = 5000;
 *          UTimer start;
 *
 *          // Initialize cache and ensure the data is loaded.
 *          // This loop checks for errors in Normalization. Once we pass the initialization
 *          // without errors we can safelly assume that there are no errors while timing the 
 *          // funtion
 *          for (loops=0; loops<10; loops++) {
 *              for (line=0; line < gNumFileLines; line++) {
 *                  if (opt_uselen) {
 *                      len = fileLines[line].len;
 *                  }
 *
 *                  retVal= fn(fileLines[line].name,len,dest,destCapacity,&error);
 *      #if U_PLATFORM_HAS_WIN32_API
 *                  if(retVal==0 ){
 *                      fprintf(stderr,"Normalization of string in Windows API failed for mode %s. ErrorNo: %i at line number %i\n",mode,GetLastError(),line);
 *                      return 0;
 *                  }
 *      #endif
 *                  if(U_FAILURE(error)){
 *                      fprintf(stderr,"Normalization of string in ICU API failed for mode %s. Error: %s at line number %i\n",mode,u_errorName(error),line);
 *                      return 0;
 *                  }
 *        
 *              }
 *          }
 *
 *          //compute the time
 *
 *          utimer_getTime(&start);
 *          for (loops=0; loops<loopCount; loops++) {
 *              for (line=0; line < gNumFileLines; line++) {
 *                  if (opt_uselen) {
 *                      len = fileLines[line].len;
 *                  }
 *
 *                  retVal= fn(fileLines[line].name,len,dest,destCapacity,&error);
 *       
 *              }
 *          }
 *
 *          return utimer_getElapsedSeconds(&start);
 *      }
 *      </code>
 *
 * iii) Let a higher level function do the calculation of confidence levels etc.
 *     Example:
 *     <code>
 *       void perf(UTimer* timer, UChar* source, int32_t sourceLen, UChar* target, int32_t targetLen, int32_t loopCount,UNormalizationMode mode, UErrorCode* error){
 *              int32_t loops;
 *              for (loops=0; loops<loopCount; loops++) {
 *                  unorm_normalize(source,sourceLen,target, targetLen,mode,error);
 *              }
 *              utimer_getTime(timer);
 *       }
 *       void main(const char* argsc, int argv){
 *          // read the file and setup the data
 *          // set up options
 *          UTimer start,timer1, timer2, timer3, timer4;
 *          double NFDTimeTaken, NFCTimeTaken, FCDTimeTaken;
 *          switch(opt){
 *              case 0:
 *                  utimer_getTime(start);
 *                  perf(timer1, source,sourceLen, target, targetLen,loopCount,UNORM_NFD,&error);
 *                  NFDTimeTaken = utimer_getDeltaSeconds(start,timer1);
 *              case 1:
 *                  timer_getTime(start);
 *                  perf(timer2,source,sourceLen,target,targetLen,loopCount,UNORM_NFC,&error);
 *                  NFCTimeTaken = utimer_getDeltaSeconds(start,timer2);
 *                  perf(timer3, source, sourceLen, target,targetLen, loopCount, UNORM_FCD,&error);
 *              // ........so on .............          
 *           }
 *          // calculate confidence levels etc and print            
 *
 *       }
 *           
 *     </code>
