[issue29866] Added datetime_diff to datetime.py.

Decorater added the comment: Yeah, I could. I did just realize that there is a bug in it though that sometimes if it is like 58 seconds into a minute and you sleep for 15 that the code then thinks an entire minute elapsed when it has not. I need to think of a way to bypass that bug first. I fo
