How can Bevy's documentation be improved?

#8964 introduced several new APIs to pause, resume and slow down time. In the many games, this will be an effective way to pause the game! No need for run conditions or states.

However, this could use its own example under bevy_time.

Can I take this?
I'm thinking a sprite moving left to right with buttons and keybindings to pause/resume and speed up/down time should cover it and UI showing the fixed and virtual times. Does that sound good?

Yes please, that sounds great!

When first looking at this I missed this should go in bevy_time. Does the outlined example makes sense in that crate? Shouldn't that be swapped with the current ecs/time example (which just logs stuff) or replace it?

Oh, I meant to say, this should go in the time folder of the main bevy examples! Examples that are specific to the bevy_time crate will be hard to discover and not really that useful.

I've landed on this, but I still need to properly document the example. I skipped the buttons 'cause that would add too much noise.
