[ENH]Adding the ability to see Timestamps in the debugger.

🟢 How does GSE currently work

Currently, there is no ability to see the Timestamp showing when a command was executed in the debugger.

🟢 Describe the solution you'd like

I believe it would be beneficial to be able to see an exact time stamp/elapsed time when troubleshooting and tuning sequences, as it would allow us to more closely compare what our sequence does with what a tool such as Raidbots quicksim produces.

Granted, there will never be a 100% correlation, but it should allow us to much better tune the performance of the sequences. Additionally, being able to see from when to when a sequence was GCD locking/skipping due to an active GCD would allow us to fine tune the delay in key click to maximize the potential of the sequence.

🟢 Describe alternatives you've considered

Can't think of any alternatives

🟢 Additional context

There are a couple of options here. Which would be useful to show?

-- unix time
time() -- 1596157547
GetServerTime() -- 1596157549

-- local time, same as [date](https://warcraft.wiki.gg/wiki/API_date)(nil, time())
date() -- "Fri Jul 31 03:05:47 2020"

-- realm time
GetGameTime() -- 20, 4
C_DateAndTime.GetCurrentCalendarTime() -- hour:20, minute:4
C_DateAndTime.GetServerTimeLocal() -- 1596139440 unix time offset by the server's time zone (e.g. UTC minus 5 hours)

commented

IMO the most accurate time would be the GetServerTime(). That would ignore any differences between the client and server timestamp and knowing when a server sees the commands is a more accurate reflection of the sequence in a comparison to a raidbot sim. Not certain there is a way to get any more precise than seconds.

GetServerTime() -- 1596157549

Essentially, in the log, it would look like this: 1596157549

Edit: the C function underneath calculates in MS but WoW only exposes the Seconds
