PmwOut: Add methods to suspend and resume PWM

It is now possible to temporarily suspend PWM and safely preserve the duty
cycle set. This functionality is needed to allow a device to enter deep
sleep as a PWM instance prevents deep sleep in order for the timer it
relies on to run so its output can be modified. The duty cycle configuration
can be restored upon resuming from deep sleep.
