Improvements to Solenoid feature (#7369)
* Error out when Solenid pin is not defined Instead of defaulting to a (literally) random pin, error out instead. Because this pin may be used, or because that pin may not be exposed, or may not exist. * Remove 'SOLENOID_ACTIVE' setting since it's not used * Update documentation

+?> Dwell time is how long the "plunger" stays activated. The dwell time changes how the solenoid sounds.
Beware that some pins may be powered during bootloader (ie. A13 on the STM32F303 chip) and will result in the solenoid kept in the on state through the whole flashing process. This may overheat and damage the solenoid. If you find that the pin the solenoid is connected to is triggering the solenoid during bootloader/DFU, select another pin.
