To help tweak the decoder-suspend functionality, we want to measure how much video-decoding could actually be suspended (while hidden). This is measured by counting the time from the moment a video would stop being fully decoded (given by a pref'd time after it becomes hidden), until is it visible again and decoding would resume.
Unplayed or invalid videos are not counted.
Telemetry will be keyed by audio presence ('AV' with audio, 'V' video only), and by resolution ranges (e.g. '720<h<=1080'). An 'All' key will also accumulate all numbers.

My fault, I forgot to cancel the timer in its owner's destructor, and then I ignored the try issue because I thought it was the "usual" intermittent. :-(
Patch on the way...

How about an auto timer that will cancel automatically to prevent UAF?

Good idea! This should be compulsory, I'll investigate...

However, for consistency with existing timers in that class, I'll keep the manual cancellation+destruction for now.
