Description:
------------
I'm not fully sure I got this right, but from my understanding of the event_timer_* the following script should display "foo".


Reproduce code:
---------------
$event = event_timer_new();

event_timer_set($event, function() {

    echo "foo\n";

});


$base = event_base_new();

event_timer_pending($event,1);
event_base_set($event, $base);
event_timer_add($event);

sleep(2);

echo "Starting main event loop\n";
event_base_loop($base);
echo "The end\n";

Expected result:
----------------
Starting main event loop
foo
The end

Actual result:
--------------
Starting main event loop
The end

Actually it works just fine, you were just using a wrong func.
Here is a working code:
base = event_base_new();
$event = event_timer_new();

event_timer_set($event, function() {

        echo "foo\n";
        
});     
event_base_set($event, $base);
event_timer_add($event, 2000000 /* these are microseconds, yes */);

echo "Starting main event loop\n";
event_base_loop($base);
echo "The end\n";

Nevertheless, libevent extension does seem to lack some documentation.
I'll add that into my TODO, but you're always welcome to help.
