Pull-down VBUS pins #3

There is a slight leakage from the Pico W to the VBUS when running on battery power, exceeding the USB's vSafe0V by 0.8V, and sometimes the host PC-side USB controller may not supply power to the VBUS. This condition can be resolved by pulling down the VBUS in the circuitry on the Pico W side.
