timers: Update the documentation to reflect on the new timer_shutdown() API
In order to make sure that a timer is not re-armed after it is stopped before freeing, a new shutdown state is added to the timer code. The API timer_shutdown_sync() and timer_shutdown() must be called before the object that holds the timer can be freed. Update the documentation to reflect this new workflow.
