      math::TimeAvg

TimeAvg object averages "in" over the configured time.

Note that this is NOT a running or moving average - this object caches the average over the previous time as the out value, and updates out every "time" ms.

Until the first full cycle has elapsed, out is set to average of all samples so far.

The average may be reset/restarted at any time using the "reset" action.
