[New-bugs-announce] [issue34917] add time decorator to timeit.py

[AmjadHD]

New submission from AmjadHD <amjadbenhedhili at outlook.com>:

I made this simple time decorator, it's not perfect but it does make python more pythonic :) :
it can be used as a decorator:
```
@timef
def fun_to_time(a, b):
    ...
```
or as a function call
`timef(print)("Hello world!")`
just a simple decorator no need for
`timeit.timeit("fun_to_time(a, b)", setup="from __main__ import a, b", number=1)`
it's also customizable as you can control number of repetitions, garbage collection, unit ...
and it produces a formatted output such as:
`fun_to_time: 24.1056 ms`.
It is somewhat badly written so waiting for your word people of wisdom :).
I think python needs this in the standard library as the current way is (sometimes) tedious.
