Any reason this isn't just:
pub struct PinHrTimerHandle<'a, T: HasHrTimer<T>>(Pin<&'a T>)
where
T: HasHrTimer<T>;
With that nit (feel free to take it or leave it) resolved:

I had review comments in the past asking me to not use tuple structs.
The rationale being that the name carries context/intent. In this
particular case, I don't think the name helps a lot, but I also don't
mind having it there.
