StopWatch: increase precision by using System.nanoTime()
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LANG-323
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-323
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.3
            Reporter: Daniel Lindner
            Priority: Minor


In Java5, theres a new, more precise way to measure elapsed timespans:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/System.html#nanoTime()

It will probably break the class contract of the current StopWatch class, as 
the returned timestamps cannot be transformed to Dates etc., but it will add 
precision to the stopwatch aspect (as opposed to the timewatch aspect) of the 
class.
Perhaps the way to go is to introduce a new HighPrecisionStopWatch class.
