Documentation: driver-api: pps: Update PPS generator documentation
PPS documentation has a generalized section for generators. Update the section so any new generator documentation can be appended.

Sometimes one needs to be able not only to catch PPS signals but to produce
202202
them also. For example, running a distributed simulation, which requires
203-
computers' clock to be synchronized very tightly. One way to do this is to
204-
invent some complicated hardware solutions but it may be neither necessary
205-
nor affordable. The cheap way is to load a PPS generator on one of the
206-
computers (master) and PPS clients on others (slaves), and use very simple
207-
cables to deliver signals using parallel ports, for example.
