MONO_xxx is much easier to read if you're not familiar with the code.
MVLSB is deprecated but kept for backwards compatibility, for the time
being.
This patch also updates the associated docs and tests.
* Fix mis-spelling of `ticks_add` in code examples.
* Be consistent about parentheses after function names.
* Be consistent about formatting of function, variable and constant names.
* Be consistent about spaces and punctuation.
* Fix some language errors (missing or wrong words, wrong word order).
* Keep line length under 90 chars.

MicroPython guarantees '/' to be a path separator, so extra constant taking
precious ROM space are not needed. MicroPython never had such constant, only
one vendor port had it (now unmaintained).
This new function controls what happens on a hard-fault:
- debugging disabled: board will do a reset
- debugging enabled: board will print registers and stack and flash LEDs
The default is disabled, ie to do a reset. This is different to previous
behaviour which flashed the LEDs and waited indefinitely.
machine.time_pulse_us() is intended to provide very fine timing, including
while working with signal bursts, where each transition is tracked in row.
Throwing and handling an exception may take too much time and "signal loss".
So instead, in case of a timeout, just return negative value. Cases of
timeout while waiting for initial signal stabilization, and during actual
timing, are recognized.
The documentation is updated accordingly, and rewritten somewhat to clarify
the function behavior.
