This exposes Sample() on Timer, just like it is already available on Histogram. This is necessary to know the number of measurements in a given sample (via timer.Sample().Size()), which in turn is useful when gauging the "value" of different percentiles. For example, publishing the 99th percentile of a Timer is often pointless (or even misleading) if there are only 3 samples that contributed to that distribution.
