/**
The CUserActivityManager API allows clients to easily monitor for
user inactivity and activity. It is a key part in implementing functionality 
such as power management and screen savers.

Clients construct the object using NewL() and call Start() to register 
callbacks to begin [in]activity monitoring. Monitoring continues until the 
object is destroyed. Clients can call SetInactivityTimeout() to adjust the
inactivity interval once started.

Callbacks supplied by clients should:
 - complete quickly with minimal blocking. 
 - never call CUserActivityManager APIs as reentrancy is not supported.
 - never leave otherwise it can lead to panics.

This API uses "CUserActivityManager" category panics for its error strategy as 
it has few error return code paths. Specific panics raised by APIs through 
improper use can be seen in the API documentation. KErrGeneral is raised
when the internal state is irrecoverable.
