Some platforms are missing timer channels, this is now left to the
(missing) preprocessor definitions on those platforms, no
platform-specific defines needed anymore.
Also fix usage of timer counter register 3 (hardcoded) in
cpu/avr/dev/clock.c -- this code isn't used on many platforms as it
requires a very special quartz clock frequency but this now also uses
the platform timer specification.
We can now directly compile arduino sketches (.pde) files.
Arduino compatible analogWrite works now.
But there is still a long way to go, serial I/O and timer stuff (delay,
millis etc) currently don't work (not tested but I don't expect this to
work).
It can be used in an arduino sketch or in a normal contiki program.
We get a PWM frequency of 490.2 Hz (a period of 2.040 ms), that's
Arduino compatible. If you need different frequencies see native timer
usage in examples/osd/pwm-example
In a contiki program you have to call arduino_pwm_timer_init to
initialize the timer before pwm works. The arduino sketch wrapper
already does this.
For running a sketch, see examples/osd/arduino-sketch
The leds_set() function is added on top of leds_arch_set() in order to have a
means of displaying a pattern on a set of LEDs, while keeping the ENERGEST
information up to date, which would be missing with a direct call to
leds_arch_set().

New application and new example.
We use the built-in timer routines and add an offset to get the
wallclock time. The offset can be set by time-changing routines
(currently only settimeofday).
We also maintain an offset for timezone handling but this isn't
currently fully implemented.
Current default in the Makefile is the *new* bootloader address.
But for backward compatibility we've modified the run*.sh files
to use the old address. The run*.sh also now explain how to change
the default.
