Overview

Adds support for the timers module to browserify.

Node.js also offers the immediate APIs, which aren't yet available cross-browser, so we polyfill those:

Linked lists are efficient when you have thousands (millions?) of timers with the same delay. Take a look at timers-browserify-full in this case.
