I'm still confused about where these two bits are going.

What is "run time"? The time it takes for each test to run?

Are we talking about $harness_end - $harness_start ?

Isn't Smolder reading the meta.yml file from the archive?
I'm not particularly concerned about where $test_start{"foo.t"} and
$test_end{"foo.t"} are written (in the tap stream with YAML or in
meta.yml or on a bit of parchment) as long as we keep in mind that
tests may run simultaneously.
harness_time: [13:01.00, 13:02.30]
test_times:
foo: [13:01.01, 13:01.08]
bar: [13:01.01, 13:02.05]
baz: [13:01.08, 13:02.30]
(pretend I typed valid datetimes and YAML)
