/**
 * Buzz the passed `pattern` out on the internal vibration motor.
 *
 * A pattern is a sequence of `.`, `,`, `-`, `:`, `;` and `=` where
 * - `.` is one short and weak vibration
 * - `,` is one medium and weak vibration
 * - `-` is one long and weak vibration
 * - `:` is one short and strong vibration
 * - `;` is one medium and strong vibration
 * - `=` is one long and strong vibration
 *
 * You can use the `buzz_menu` module to display a menu where some common patterns can be chosen.
 *
 * @param {string} pattern A string like `.-.`, `..=`, `:.:`, `..`, etc.
 * @returns a Promise
