- The TrafficLight class combines the TrafficLightWidget with control flow
- based on the LightState class. The state graph has four states:
- red-to-yellow, yellow-to-green, green-to-yellow and yellow-to-red. The
- initial state is red-to-yellow; when the state's timer times out, the
- state machine transitions to yellow-to-green. The same process repeats
- through the other states.
