Interface: ToDurationOptions
Options for toDuration.
The mirror of ToDateOptions: each function can fall back to the other, so each has one switch turning that fallback off.

Section titled “parseDate?”
optionalparseDate?:boolean
Whether a toDate value is read as the signed offset from now, so
2026-08-02 becomes however long until (or since) that instant. Defaults to
true.
Set false when only a length of time is meaningful - a timeout, a poll
interval, a cache TTL - because a date would otherwise yield a plausible but
wrong number that also drifts with the clock. Also what toDate passes
when it recurses.
