microbit-dal: increase granularity of the system wide timer



Added an mbed Timer instance to maintain a microsecond level timestamp.



Added a function system_timer_current_time_us() which now returns the

time since power on in microseconds.



MicroBitEvents now call system_timer_current_time_us() giving

microsecond level timestamps.

Jonathan Austin 1:8aa5cdb4ab67 29 * This module provides:
Jonathan Austin 1:8aa5cdb4ab67 30 *
Jonathan Austin 1:8aa5cdb4ab67 31 * 1) a concept of global system time since power up

Jonathan Austin 1:8aa5cdb4ab67 33 *
Jonathan Austin 1:8aa5cdb4ab67 34 * The latter is useful to avoid costs associated with multiple mbed Ticker instances
Jonathan Austin 1:8aa5cdb4ab67 35 * in microbit-dal components, as each incurs a significant additional RAM overhead (circa 80 bytes).
