/**
 * The Ticker provides  a centralized tick or heartbeat broadcast at a set interval. Listeners can subscribe to the tick
 * event to be notified when a set time interval has elapsed.
 *
 * Note that the interval that the tick event is called is a target interval, and may be broadcast at a slower interval
 * during times of high CPU load. The Ticker class uses a static interface (ex. <code>Ticker.getPaused()</code>) and
 * should not be instantiated.
 *
 * <h4>Example</h4>
 *      createjs.Ticker.addEventListener("tick", handleTick);
 *      function handleTick(event) {
 *          // Actions carried out each frame
 *          if (!event.paused) {
 *              // Actions carried out when the Ticker is not paused.
 *          }
 *      }
 *
 * To update a stage every tick, the {{#crossLink "Stage"}}{{/crossLink}} instance can also be used as a listener, as
 * it will automatically update when it receives a tick event:
 *
 *      createjs.Ticker.addEventListener("tick", stage);

	 * In this mode, Ticker uses the requestAnimationFrame API, but attempts to synch the ticks to target framerate. It
	 * uses a simple heuristic that compares the time of the RAF return to the target time for the current frame and
	 * dispatches the tick when the time is within a certain threshold.
	 *
	 * This mode has a higher variance for time between frames than TIMEOUT, but does not require that content be time
	 * based as with RAF while gaining the benefits of that API (screen synch, background throttling).
	 *
