Timers, periodic or not, can now be restarted thanks to esp_timer_restart function.
This is done atomically, which can be used to feed a periodic timer, or simply change the period.
Added the following new APIs to the esp_timer module:
- esp_timer_get_period(): Returns the period of a timer in microseconds.
- esp_timer_get_expiry_time(): Returns the timeout value of a one-shot timer in microseconds.
