NSTimer.new -> NSTimer.init #19
Description
Non-scheduling initializers are currently defined as static methods because there was a bug in Foundation causing a crash.
I believe it was fixed, but I don't remember when exactly — it's possible it was only iOS 9/El Capitan, and it still won't work on iOS 8 etc.
If someone could verify this, we could add initializers that are appropriately marked as @available.
PR-s appreciated.

Hm, #22 made this hard :( I can't use initializer syntax if using
CFRunLoopTimerCreateWithHandler. So either we'll have to wait for factory initializers (there is a Swift Evolution proposal out there), or… back toNSTimerActor? :(radex commentedon Apr 10, 2016
Nope, still doesn't work. Not sure why — I'd swear I've seen this work... If someone wants to help, check out this branch: http://github.com/radex/SwiftyTimer/tree/init
