If the LogstashHandler finds a `Duration` instance in that array, it will add it as a "duration" field in the logstash log document. In the BotRunner, we were already using parameters for a different purpose, so it got a little bit messy, but I think it's ok.

> There are two kinds of timings I'm adding logging for. The obvious one is timing external HTTP calls and running processes, as well as total running/pending/scheduled times for WorkItems and getPeriodicItems in the BotRunner. The other kind are more complex as I'm trying to measure the user perceived latency from when a PR or bug is updated to when the bot actually reacts with a response to that update. This is of course tricky to get right and needs to be carefully implemented for each instance, but I believe I have at least added some reasonably relevant approximations that will make sense to measure and track. To generate these, I had to introduce a new field in various WorkItems that stores the timestamp from the external change that triggered it (e.g. `prUpdatedAt`).
