Valheim UI Mod - Display Day & Time Countdown

Simple UI mod to display above the minimap, both the in-game day and a countdown of the time left in the current day or night (in minutes/seconds). The panel game object with the day & time in it, is added as a child to the HUD root of the game, so it should only be visible when the HUD is visible.
