Minimal beginnings of an impulse clock driver.

Currently says "tick!" every 30 seconds.

+Clunk might one day be a program for driving an impulse electric clock
+from a GPIO line.
+
+The general plan is to generate a pulse every 30 s (at 0 s and 30 s
+past each minute), with extra magic to adjust the clock at startup and
+at the start and end of summer time.
