core::arch ?

[sebastiencs]

Hi,

I was looking for a timing library on crates.io and saw quanta.
I am wondering why you are not using the module core::arch ?

It is available on stable rust and the instruction rdtsc is there:

No particular reason!

I was playing with the original code back before std::arch was stabilized, didn't update the code once it was available, and then pushed this crate into the world and sort of forgot about using std::arch.

Happy to accept a PR or leave this issue open as a reminder to switch over to std::arch in the next few weeks (busy at work).
