This PR introduces a bare timer driver
bare::AnyTimer
, which erases the TIMx peripheral type and provides bare access to the timer registers. To support different timer types, it is parameterized in the register type (such asTimGp16
orTimAdv
).This is intended to be an MVP for type-erased timer drivers. While
bare::AnyTimer
can already be useful on its own to applications that need just register-level access to the timers, it is also intended to be used as a basic building block for removing generics from higher-level timer drivers in Embassy.Marked as draft because it depends on #3031 and because I also plan to add DMA support into the PR.
