Contributions summary:Marcel focused on implementing and refactoring functionalities related to simulation time management within the NEST simulator. Their contributions included adding functions to access simulation time information, renaming functions for clarity, and refactoring the return values from these functions to provide time instead of steps. These changes involved modifying the `simulation_manager.h` and `simulation_manager.cpp` files to ensure the simulator accurately tracks and reports simulation progress. The user also updated the documentation with improved punctuation and clarified descriptions.
