Paul Sokolovsky d5e9ab6e61 extmod/machine_pulse: Make time_pulse_us() not throw exceptions.
machine.time_pulse_us() is intended to provide very fine timing, including
while working with signal bursts, where each transition is tracked in row.
Throwing and handling an exception may take too much time and "signal loss".
So instead, in case of a timeout, just return negative value. Cases of
timeout while waiting for initial signal stabilization, and during actual
timing, are recognized.

The documentation is updated accordingly, and rewritten somewhat to clarify
the function behavior.

Damien George 33168081f4 extmod/machine: Add MICROPY_PY_MACHINE_PULSE config for time_pulse_us.
Since not all ports that enable the machine module have the pin HAL
functions.

Damien George 4940bee62a extmod: Add machine time_pulse_us function (at C and Python level).
The C implementation is taken from the DHT driver.
