Notes: Weakly enforce a minimum allocated pacing time per slide

When using the totalTime-based pacing calculation, a presenter may
inadvertently set totalTime and per-slide data-timing attributes in
such a way that the pacing time for some slides is impossibly low or
even negative.

Add a check to ensure that the pacing on a slide never falls below a
configurable minimum, defaulting to 0. Write a console warning if the
pacing for any slide(s) falls below the threshold.
