|| _stop !== null

This is a bug I noticed recently: when calling stop multiple times the elapsed
time was updated each time. I unsuccessfully tried to figure out how to fix it
(without adding a boolean field) and with your change it becomes trivial.

Done.

       return;
     }
     _stop = Clock.now();
   }
 
   void reset() {
     if (_start === null) return;
     // If [_start] is not null, then the stopwatch had already been started. It
     // may running right now.
     _start = Clock.now();
