Hi Kent!

Gunnar Thörnqvist reported that he no longer can use a command like:

    $ gpioset -t 0 -p 3600s -c gpiochip0 17=0
    gpioset: invalid period: 3600s

Due to the above error. I realized we only allow ~35 minutes as we store
milliseconds in 32-bit signed integers. Here's a proposal to allow longer
time periods by using 64-bit variables.

Bartosz Golaszewski (2):
  build: fix configure error messages on missing functions
  tools: allow longer time periods
