No documentation for /etc/RTIMULib.ini #110

There is no documentation for RTIMULib.ini.

It seems that the poll rate / sample rate of the sensors on the Sense Hat can be configured using some values inside this file, but there is no documentation for it.

There are some notes in the file about what the range of values for each option are, but it is not clear how these correspond to the different values in datasheets for each different device. (Of which there are about 10 different datasheets for each hardware sensor device.)

Would be useful to have some detailed documentation somewhere for each of the different sensor ICs and their config options.
