add PocketBeagle example to blink LED

add PocketBeagle example to blink LED

Note: Python programs using Blinka on PocketBeagle and BeagleBone need to use `sudo`.  Refer to this issue for more information:
https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Python_PlatformDetect/issues/20

Here is the output of this program running OK on a PocketBeagle:
debian@beaglebone:~/Adafruit_Blinka/examples$ sudo python3 pb_digitalio.py
[sudo] password for debian:
hello blinky!

+# Example of blinking LED on PocketBeagle
+# https://www.adafruit.com/product/4179
+#
+# Wire the circuit as follows:
+# 1) connect anode (+) lead of LED to P1_33 pin
+# 2) connect cathode (-) lead to 1K Ohm resistor
+# 3) connect that 1K Ohm resistor to GND
+# 
+# NOTE: the pin mode can be verified with the command line
+# utility config-pin on the BeagleBoard.org Debian image
+#
+# To verify the pin is in GPIO mode:
+# debian@beaglebone:~$ config-pin -q p1.33
+# P1_33 Mode: gpio Direction: out Value: 0
+#
+# To set pin to GPIO mode:
+# $ config-pin p1.33 gpio
+
+import time
+import board
+import digitalio
+
+print("hello blinky!")
+
+led = digitalio.DigitalInOut(board.P1_33)
+led.direction = digitalio.Direction.OUTPUT
+
+while True:
+    led.value = True
+    time.sleep(0.5)
+    led.value = False
+    time.sleep(0.5)
