Fix units for time parameters for Merlin

I think this looks pretty good. My only comments are that it still references the ZMQ adapter / io and the all caps attributes on MerlinDetector are a bit odd. |

Good spot. The attributes could be reworked if needed. |

WIP: absolutely no tests in this right now
May be a bit overkill but I've had some trouble when getting the Merlin in the lab to load its configuration files properly, so thought would be helpful to have a sim.
Some commands aren't implemented and there's definitely lots of weird quirks not replicated, some parameters will be automatically set when other parameters are set etc, that's not in here.
But it should accept and parse all the GET/SET/CMD commands supported in the manual/in the Odin driver, and spit out a correctly formatted image with headers, definitely for single threshold mode (have tested an acquisition through the Odin driver and been able to get images into an H5 file) and I believe it should work for the colour modes too.
I made a TCPPushIo class resembling the ZeroMqPushIo from tickit but using asyncio.start_server instead of creating a socket from a factory method. The Merlin only sends out image data on its TCP data port (6342) and doesn't accept any input on this port, so this seemed better than trying to use the existing TCP IO classes in tickit. Happy to keep namespaced under Merlin as some of this design may be Merlin specific but could see it being made more generic.
