=head1 NAME

Message::Passing::Filter::Delay - Delay messages for some time.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This filter passes all incoming messages through with no changes, however
not immediately - they are delayed .

You would normally never want to use this, but it can be useful for
testing occasionally, or avoiding race conditions.

=head1 ATTRIBUTES

=head2 delay_for

Floating point number, indicating how many seconds to delay messages for.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 consume ($msg)

Sets up a timed callback in the event loop, which passes the message
to the output (and deletes itself) once the timeout has expired
