Change: base autosaves intervals on real time (instead of game time) (#10655)
There are two fundamental issues with autosave:
- When fast-forwarding, it saves way too often
- When paused, it never saves

Both makes no sense. Autosaves are meant to prevent you from
accidentally losing your work. The emphasis on "your" work.

To solve both issues, the autosave now works on real time. You
can select every 10 / 30 / 60 / 120 minutes, which are similar to
what the setting was in game-months.

When you pause, autosaving will stop. Unless you make any change
to the game; then it will continue to make autosaves, even so
the game is paused. Unpausing / pausing resets this mechanism.

Patric Stout 5e1bcee39b Codechange: introduce a framework for all our timers
IntervalTimer and TimeoutTimer use RAII, and can be used to replace
all the time-based timeouts, lag-detection, "execute every N" we
have.
As it uses RAII, you can safely use it as static variable, class
member, temporary variable, etc. As soon as it goes out-of-scope,
it will be safely removed.
This allows for much easier to read code when it comes to intervals.
