Parse string based staleTime values

[garand]

I often have to go to Google or some other service to quickly convert a duration (7 days, 1 hr, etc) to milliseconds for use with staleTime or the other duration based options for a query. Would you consider adding the option of supplying a string based value to those options?

// Proposed
staleTime: '7d'
refetchInterval: '1hr'

With a quick search I came across a library called Duration.js that appears to have the functionality I'm proposing. Of course including extra dependencies, especially only the 2nd one for the whole project isn't awesome. Maybe just build it in natively to the library as a very simplified version.

I would much rather just find and vet a good utility to do this and merely suggest and document its potential usage.

Probably the right choice.
