ntp constructor dup / retry logic

ntp constructor removed.

dup rtc import had already been removed.

new NTP_RETRIES and NTP_DELAY_S user configurable settings.

```
NTP_RETRIES   = 8     # number of NTP fetch attempts
NTP_DELAY_S   = 1.0   # delay between attempts (seconds)
```

updated settings.toml example

updated docstring for sync_time with new NTP* configurables
