Just imagine that your task is attached to a continuously running timer
as soon as you request this via rt_task_set_periodic. So, if you feel
like suspending the task for a while, detach it from that timer again
(infinite period). Putting this functionality into the RTOS is a bit
overkill in my eyes.

This is a corner use-case, so not everyone should pay for implementing
it in a generic way, only the user who really wants it (by having to
write a few extra lines).
