Rodolfo Giometti 86b525bed2 drivers pps: add PPS generators support
Sometimes one needs to be able not only to catch PPS signals but to
produce them also. For example, running a distributed simulation,
which requires computers' clock to be synchronized very tightly.

This patch adds PPS generators class in order to have a well-defined
interface for these devices.
