[PATCH v4] doc: document the pwm command

Signed-off-by: Emil Kronborg emil.kronborg@protonmail.com --- Changes in v4: - Changed license from GPL-2.0+ to GPL-2.0-or-later. Also, removed trailing colon. - Simplified the descriptions in the Synopsis section by removing the text following the '-'. - Reformulated the description of the invert subcommand to be more precise and correct. - %s/duty cycle/duty period to be consistent with pwm.h and to ensure correctness, as duty cycle is dimensionless and <duty_ns> is given in nanoseconds. - Moved the common parameters, pwm_dev_num and channel, to the bottom of the Description section, and added the remaining parameters. - Added a comma in the Examples section and used 'µs' instead of 'us'. - Rebased on top of master.
