* Returns an instance of {@code interfaceType} that delegates all method
* calls to the {@code target} object, enforcing the specified time limit on

* {@link Object#equals}, {@link Object#hashCode}, and
* {@link Object#toString}.
*
* If the target method call finishes before the limit is reached, the return
* value or exception is propagated to the caller exactly as-is. If, on the
* other hand, the time limit is reached, the proxy will attempt to abort the
* call to the target, and will throw an {@link UncheckedTimeoutException} to
* the caller.
*
* It is important to note that the primary purpose of the proxy object is to
* return control to the caller when the timeout elapses; aborting the target
* method call is of secondary concern. The particular nature and strength
* of the guarantees made by the proxy is implementation-dependent. However,
* it is important that each of the methods on the target object behaves
* appropriately when its thread is interrupted.
