shared/runtime/softtimer: Generalise soft_timer to work without SysTick.

If a port defines MICROPY_SOFT_TIMER_TICKS_MS then soft_timer assumes a
SysTick back end, and provides a soft_timer_next variable that sets when
the next call to soft_timer_handler() should occur.

Otherwise, a port should provide soft_timer_get_ms() and
soft_timer_schedule_at_ms() with appropriate semantics (see comments).

Existing users of soft_timer should continue to work as they did.
