docs/library/pyb.Timer: Document how to use BKIN pin with example.
Document how to connect the Timer block BRK_IN to a physical Pin alternate function. Add an example of PWM Motor drive using complementary outputs with dead time and break input to kill the PWM and generate a callback. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <c.mason@inchipdesign.com.au>
