/*!
A sleeper is any component that sometimes requires a clock but at other times is 'asleep' — i.e. is not doing
any clock-derived work, so needn't receive a clock. A disk controller is an archetypal example.
A sleeper will signal sleeps and wakes to an observer.
This is intended to allow for performance improvements to machines with components that can sleep. The observer
callout is virtual so the intended use case is that a machine holds a component that might sleep. Its transitions
into and out of sleep are sufficiently infrequent that a virtual call to announce them costs sufficiently little that
the saved ::run_fors add up to a substantial amount.
By convention, sleeper components must be willing to accept ::run_for even after announcing sleep. It's a hint,
not a command.
