Description of the new feature / enhancement

I would like the system tray icon, context menu, and certainly the PowerToys UI to show a countdown timer for how long Awake will keep my system awake when I choose "Temporary".

Scenario when this would be used?

I like to start Awake.exe at the beginning of the day on my laptop because I primarily use a different machine and hate having it lock every 15 minutes. But, I don't need my laptop to stay awake all night long if I forget to turn off "Awake".
I like to set a custom duration of 6-8 hours, depending on when I remember to start it.
