Update IO_HCSR04.h

Modify mode of measurement so that the driver doesn't loop for long periods waiting for the incoming pulse to complete.   Original loop behaviour can be reinstated by adding LOOP option in create call (see comment header in file).

* Note: The timing accuracy required for measuring the pulse length means that

*
* Where 23000 is the VPIN allocated,
* 32 is the pin connected to the HCSR04 trigger terminal,

* Alternative configuration, which hogs the processor until the measurement is complete
