Description

Concise explanation of the problem

The current documentation for console.time states "...when calling console.timeEnd() to stop the timer and output the elapsed time in milliseconds to stdout". However, since the application of PR #29251 that affects Node.js V13 and higher, this behavior changed to "display timeEnd with suitable time unit". For example, if the elapsed time is 3869ms, console.timeEnd() now displays "3.869s". For greater values, it will also display hours and minutes per the code in lib/internal/console/constructor.js. In the examples for console.timeLog() and consooe.timeEnd(), none show anything other than milliseconds as an output.
