pwm_get() in core.c does not save best match before setting period and polarity

pwm_get() in core.c does not save best match before setting period and polarity

[Ralph Hempel]

The PWM core does not appear to respect the settings in the pwm_lookup 
table in the ev3dev projects implementation of a board file. Root cause 
is that pwm_get() does not save the pwm_lookup entry for the  best 
matching device, and therefore ends up using period and polarity from a 
pointer that's past the end of the table.

These values are often 0, which translates to PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL, but 
it can be anything really...

First patch ever submitted - fun times finding this one - the bug was in 
the last place I looked
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Make the match loop save the best match so that period and polarity can 
be set correctly
