1817034 - Improve profiler markers in the timer thread

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XPCOM, task)

Description

[Florian Quèze [:florian]]

The patch stack in bug 1787974 included improvements to the markers recorded in the timer thread (especially https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D164293), that we didn't land there to move forward faster. I would like to finish improving these markers.
