Add helper function GetRetainSize()

it will be useful for retain implementations.

use CLOCK_MONOTONIC instead of CLOCK_REALTIME for timer setup

CLOCK_REALTIME is a wall clock, that could change back and forth (user
changes system time, winter/summer time, NTP corrections and so on).
For real-time application CLOCK_MONOTONIC should be used, it doesn't
have such jumps.

Add function example to first_steps example

It'll be used in documentation to show how to create function in
Beremiz.

fix type introduced by f33942053466 (fix pylint warning "(undefined-loop-variable) Using possibly undefined loop variable 'X'")

Build by default with optimization level -O2 for GCC

before -O0 was used by default, that caused pretty bad performance.

Amd64, i6700k, 4200MHz, GNU/Linux (non-RT kernel), gcc 7.2.0

-------------------------------------
Optimization | EN/ENO |no EN/ENO |
-------------------------------------
default | 11 | 9.5 |
-O3 | 3.9 | 5.2 |
-O2 | 4 | 4.8 |
-Os | 4.1 | 3.5 |
-Ofast | 3.9 | 5.2 |
-------------------------------------

ARM, BBB Cortex-A8, 600Mhz, GNU/Linux, gcc 4.6.3

-------------------------------------
Optimization | EN/ENO |no EN/ENO |
-------------------------------------
default | 273 | 226 |
-O3 | 141.8 | 106.2 |
-O2 | 142 | 107 |
-Os | 152.5 | 112.2 |
-Ofast | 141.7 | 106.2 |
-------------------------------------

For embedded systems with size constaints (like Cortex-Mx, AVR and so
on) I usually use -Os. It gets pretty good results. For
GNU/Linux-based systems -O2 is usually a good choice, as you see the
test results.

fix hangs on mouse selection in case if wxPython uses wxWidgets with GTK3+ support

This is default configuration on Debian Buster+ and Ubuntu 18.04+.
Probably it'll fix completely problem with 'clipboard already open'
described in the previous commit 5ce6d08f ("make clipboard open minimal time as wxPython documentation recommends")

make clipboard open minimal time as wxPython documentation recommends

https://wxpython.org/Phoenix/docs/html/wx.Clipboard.html#wx.Clipboard.GetData

"Call wx.Clipboard.Open to get ownership of the clipboard. If this
operation returns True, you now own the clipboard. Call
wx.Clipboard.SetData to put data on the clipboard, or
wx.Clipboard.GetData to retrieve data from the clipboard. Call
wx.Clipboard.Close to close the clipboard and relinquish ownership.
You should keep the clipboard open only momentarily."

Maybe it makes situation with pretty annoying error 'clipboard already
open' a little bit better.
