#4500: new parameter for timing rules

------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 I would like to measure the execution time of a target. Unfortunately
 regular timing rules do not do the job for me - user and system time are
 not reliable in my usecase as the invoked tool is just a thin wrapper that
 forwards the work to new child processes.
 Is it possible add a new parameter, that specifies the absolute running
 time, to the timing rule invocation?
