docs/library/machine.Timer: Explain the id parameter in more detail.
As noted in discussion on PR #18263, the id parameter is optional on ports
that support virtual timers.
Add some more general explanation of hardware vs virtual timers, and remove
redundant documentation about timer callbacks in favour of the isr_rules
page.
This work was funded through GitHub Sponsors.
