[hal] Convert DutyCycle Raw output to be a high time measurement (#4466)

The existing raw time has an issue where it jumps around, as in the FPGA if the frequency is not a multiple or divisor of 25 Mhz it jumps around by 1 every second. While waiting on an FPGA change, update the API to make raw output give nanoseconds rather then a scaled value. This does a longer read cycle to get the correct value, but in the future if a fast FPGA function is added this can be easily changed.
