Device events vs. timer events in webCoRE

Pistons run due to events that the piston has subscribed to. Most commonly these events are devices like switches, or sensors that report updated status as changes occur to the device. Another reason a piston can run is a timer. In this case the piston asked to be woken up in the future with a time event. The event happened because the piston requested the event to happen in the future. The subtle but important point here is device events occur because the device had a state change - th…
