Exposing a TimeStamp is not very hard. We can either capture it when we `commit()` the measures (safe but possibly slower) or when we create the nsIPerformanceStats (less exact, but faster).

Manipulating the TimeStamp in JS is harder.

Making sure that this TimeStamp is meaningful for a specific probe is hardest, but PerformanceStats.jsm should already have the necessary knowledge to handle this.

Not working on it atm.

Not really needed anymore, now that we are moving to an event-based API.
