Description

Reference: https://github.com/vuejs/vue-requests/issues/1#issuecomment-173043480

It would be great to support a level of precision. By default moment.js is limited to 1 level.

1: 2 hours 2: 2 hours, 25 minutes 3: 2 hours, 24 minutes, 44 seconds

There is a large discussion on the moment.js issues, a moment.js plugin to extend functionalities and a vue plugin for moment

Research direction
Start by examining the existing component code in the repository to understand how time formatting is handled. Review the referenced moment.js discussion (https://github.com/moment/moment/issues/463) and the moment duration format plugin for inspiration on implementing precision levels. The feature should allow users to specify a number of units to display (e.g., 1, 2, 3). Check if there are any existing tests or examples to follow. Consider adding a 'precision' prop to the component.
