Timed Burst Loss

Simulates time-based burst packet loss with precise temporal control and flexible loss pattern configuration for realistic network impairment modeling. This loss component creates burst loss events with configurable duration-based or packet-count-based loss patterns, featuring grace periods between loss events and optional cancellation timers for complex scenarios. Supports both packet-count and time-duration burst modes with millisecond-precision timing control. Essential for simulating realistic network congestion patterns.
