These suffixes were recently introduced in 61c972384d311508d07f9360d196909e27195655
and completed in 8218249f1f04de65904f58519bde21948e5a0783.

I chose not to document the suffixes in the section describing the
HH:MM:SS.mmm syntax, even though they work there (with expected, but
quite difficult to explain effects).

I think you missed the normal "s" suffix (as in seconds) which is also 
supported from now on.

 In both expressions, the optional @samp{-} indicates negative duration.
