TFTP booting is slow when a USB keyboard is installed and
stdin has usbkbd added.
This fix is to change Ctrl-C polling for USB keyboard to every second
when NET transfer is running.

Changes in v2:
1. Change configuration name from CONFIG_CTRLC_POLL_MS to CONFIG_CTRLC_POLL_S.
2. New code will be executed only when CONFIG_CTRLC_POLL_S is defined in
configuration header file.
3. Add description in README.console.
Changes in v3:
1. Move changes to common/usb_kbd.c and doc/README.usb
2. Rename config setting to CONFIG_USBKB_TESTC_PERIOD.
3. Remove slow response on USB-keyboard input when TFTP boot is not running.
Changes in v4:
1. Remove changes in doc/README.usb, common/usb_kbd.c and
CONFIG_USBKB_TESTC_PERIOD
2. Modify net/net.c
Changes in v5:
1. Change variable name to ctrlc_t_start.
2. Use two calls of get_timer(0) to get time gap.
Changes in v6:
1. In common/usb_kbd.c, check net_busy_flag to determine whether we poll
USB keyboard status.
2. In include/usb.h, add external variable declaration net_busy_flag
Changes in v7:
1. In common/usb_kbd.c and include/usb.h, add #ifdef CONFIG_CMD_NET.
2. In common/usb_kbd.c, modify code to get correct time gap.
Changes in v8:
1. Add __maybe_unused for variable kbd_testc_tms.
Changes in v9:
1. Move external variable declaration from include/usb.h to common/usb_kbd.c
