After waking up from sleep mode the timers get restarted. (DoAfterSleep()) They
should be continued. So, the remaining time must be saved in DoBeforeSleep.
This is especially interesting for long term timers. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Go to stanby or hibernate.

Actual Results:  
Timers get reset

Expected Results:  
Timers should continue
