Description

Not AbortSignal.timeout(), but a transformer that accepts a signal and returns one that aborts later:

onAbort(AbortSignal.aborted(), () => console.log('original'))
onAbort(delaySignal(signal, 5000), () => console.log('delayed'))

// 0:00: original
// 0:05: delayed

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing utility functions like onAbort to understand patterns for creating and combining AbortSignals. Research how to create a new signal that aborts after a delay or when the original signal aborts, possibly using setTimeout and the abort event listener.
