+ * @brief This class provides a way for storing and executing timer objects.
+ * It provides APIs to suit the needs of different applications and execution models.
+ * All public APIs provided by this class are thread-safe.
+ *
+ * Timers management
+ * This class provides APIs to add/remove timers to/from an internal storage.
+ * It keeps a list of weak pointers from added timers, and locks them only when
+ * they need to be executed or modified.
+ * Timers are kept ordered in a binary-heap priority queue.
+ * Calls to add/remove APIs will temporarily block the execution of the timers and
+ * will require to reorder the internal priority queue.
+ * Because of this, they have a not-negligible impact on the performance.
+ *
+ * Timers execution
+ * The most efficient use of this class consists in letting a TimersManager object
+ * to spawn a thread where timers are monitored and optionally executed.
+ * This can be controlled via the `start` and `stop` methods.
+ * Ready timers can either be executed or an on_ready_callback can be used to notify
+ * other entities that they are ready and need to be executed.
+ * Other APIs allow to directly execute a given timer.
+ *
+ * This class assumes that the `execute_callback()` API of the stored timers is never
+ * called by other entities, but it can only be called from here.
+ * If this assumption is not respected, the heap property may be invalidated,
+ * so timers may be executed out of order, without this object noticing it.

+   * Specify which interfaces you need by passing them as template parameters.
+   *
+   * This allows you to aggregate interfaces from different sources together to pass as a single
+   * aggregate object to any functions that take node interfaces or node-likes, without needing to
+   * templatize that function.
+   *
+   * You may also use this constructor to create a NodeInterfaces that contains a subset of
+   * another NodeInterfaces' interfaces.
+   *
+   * Finally, this class supports implicit conversion from node-like objects, allowing you to
+   * directly pass a node-like to a function that takes a NodeInterfaces object.
+   *
+   * Usage examples:
+   *   ```cpp
+   *   // Suppose we have some function:
+   *   void fn(NodeInterfaces<NodeBaseInterface, NodeClockInterface> interfaces);
+   *
+   *   // Then we can, explicitly:
+   *   rclcpp::Node node("some_node");
+   *   auto ni = NodeInterfaces<NodeBaseInterface, NodeClockInterface>(node);
+   *   fn(ni);
+   *
+   *   // But also:
+   *   fn(node);
+   *
+   *   // Subsetting a NodeInterfaces object also works!
+   *   auto ni_base = NodeInterfaces<NodeBaseInterface>(ni);
+   *
+   *   // Or aggregate them (you could aggregate interfaces from disparate node-likes)
+   *   auto ni_aggregated = NodeInterfaces<NodeBaseInterface, NodeClockInterface>(
+   *     node->get_node_base_interface(),
+   *     node->get_node_clock_interface()
+   *   )
+   *
+   *   // And then to access the interfaces:
+   *   // Get with get<>
+   *   auto base = ni.get<NodeBaseInterface>();
+   *
+   *   // Or the appropriate getter
+   *   auto clock = ni.get_clock_interface();
+   *   ```
+   *
+   * You may use any of the standard node interfaces that come with rclcpp:
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeBaseInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeClockInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeGraphInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeLoggingInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeParametersInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeServicesInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeTimeSourceInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeTimersInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeTopicsInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeTypeDescriptionsInterface
+   *   - rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeWaitablesInterface
+   *
+   * Or you use custom interfaces as long as you make a template specialization
+   * of the rclcpp::node_interfaces::detail::NodeInterfacesSupport struct using
+   * the RCLCPP_NODE_INTERFACE_HELPERS_SUPPORT macro.
+   *
+   * Usage example:
+   *   ```RCLCPP_NODE_INTERFACE_HELPERS_SUPPORT(rclcpp::node_interfaces::NodeBaseInterface, base)```
+   *
+   * If you choose not to use the helper macro, then you can specialize the
+   * template yourself, but you must:
+   *
+   *   - Provide a template specialization of the get_from_node_like method that gets the interface
+   *     from any node-like that stores the interface, using the node-like's getter
+   *   - Designate the is_supported type as std::true_type using a using directive
+   *   - Provide any number of getter methods to be used to obtain the interface with the
+   *     NodeInterface object, noting that the getters of the storage class will apply to all
+   *     supported interfaces.
+   *     - The getter method names should not clash in name with any other interface getter
+   *       specializations if those other interfaces are meant to be aggregated in the same
+   *       NodeInterfaces object.
+   *
+   * \param[in] node Node-like object from which to get the node interfaces
