	/**
	* Implementation of "delta queue" timeout manager.
	*
	* The timeout manager provides a timeout callback service
	* for any object. An object using the timeout service only
	* needs to have member variable of RTimeout and define the
	* timeout linkage (TimeoutLinkage) for redirecting the
	* timeout callback to a real function of some object.
	*
	* The same time manager can be used for different object
	* classes. A component can use single timeout manager
	* instance for all of its objects:
	*
	* -# Create timeout manager using TimeoutFactory::NewL
	* -# Objects, which need the timeout callback, declare
	*    the RTimeout member variable and the appropriate
	*    linkage (TimeoutLinkage).
	* -# The timeout callback for a object is requested either
	*	 by RTimeout::Set or MTimeoutManager::Set. The set
	*	 implicitly cancels previous timeout, if active.
	* -# RTimeout::Cancel cancels pending timeout, if any
	*	 is active.
	*
	* Destructions:
	* -# When an object with RTimeout member(s) is destroyed,
	*	 the destructor of this object should include a
	*	 RTimeout::Cancel() for the member variable(s).
	* -# The timeout manager must be deleted, as any normal
	*	 allocated object. All pending timeouts are silently
	*	 cancelled (no expire call will happen for them).
	*
	* The timeout manager maintains an ordered queue of pending timeouts.
	* The next object to expire is always the first in the list, and
	* the timeout manager sets up an internal timer event (RTimer::After)
	* to happen based on the first object.
	*
	* To create an instance of a timeout manager, use TimeoutFactory::NewL.

	* This is a base template class to convert the link reference into
	* "parent" class refeference. This is just a convenience
	* template and other solutions for defining the the
	* "expired" callback for RTimeout can also be used.
	*
	* A simple use example:
@code
	class CSome
		{
		
		CSome(aCallback) : iTimeout(aCallback) {};
		~CSome() { iTimeout.Cancel(); }
		Timeout();			// A method to handle the timeout of CSome
	public:
		RTimeout iTimeout;

		{
	public:
		static void Expired(RTimeout &aLink, const TTime & aNow, TAny *aPtr)
			{
			Object(aLink)->Timeout();
			}
		};
@endcode
	* All of the above can be in the CSome header file, and instances of CSome can now just
	* be created as
@code
	MTimeoutManager *tMgr = TimeoutFactory::NewL(1); // unit = 1s
	...
	CSome x = new CSome(SomeLinkage:Expired);
	...
	x->iTimeout.Set(tMgr, 10); // request timeout after 10s.
	...
	// when not needed, just delete
	delete x;
	delete tMgr;
@endcode
	* and the CSome Timeout() method will be called after 10s, unless
	* cancelled.
	*
	* Instead of using the Timeout in the objects directly, the aPtr parameter
	* of Expired could be an address of a manager type instance,
	* which handles objects of this type. The object itself might not have
	* any use of the Expired call and it should be passed to the manager. This can
	* be realised by defining the linkage Expired as follows (for example)
@code
	static void Expired(RTimeoutLink &aLink, const TTime &aNow, TAny *aPtr)
		{
		((CSomeManager *)aPtr)->Timeout(Object(aLink), aNow);
		}
