Return a deadline advanced (i.e., moved into the future) by the given duration.
Calculate time difference between this and the other deadline, where the result is directed (i.e., may be negative).
Return a deadline moved backwards (i.e., towards the past) by the given duration.

This class stores a deadline, as obtained via
Deadline.nowor the duration DSL:Its main purpose is to manage repeated attempts to achieve something (like awaiting a condition) by offering the methods
hasTimeLeftandtimeLeft. All durations are measured according toSystem.nanoTimeaka wall-time; this does not take into account changes to the system clock (such as leap seconds).
