/**
    Divides a given PWM pin frequency by a divisor.
    The resulting frequency is equal to the base frequency divided by
    the given divisor:
        - Base frequencies:
         o The base frequency for pins 3, 9, 10, and 11 is 31250 Hz.
         o The base frequency for pins 5 and 6 is 62500 Hz.
        - Divisors:
         o The divisors available on pins 5, 6, 9 and 10 are: 1, 8, 64,
           256, and 1024.
         o The divisors available on pins 3 and 11 are: 1, 8, 32, 64,
           128, 256, and 1024.
    PWM frequencies are tied together in pairs of pins. If one in a
    pair is changed, the other is also changed to match:
        - Pins 5 and 6 are paired on timer0
        - Pins 9 and 10 are paired on timer1
        - Pins 3 and 11 are paired on timer2
    Note that this function will have side effects on anything else
    that uses timers:
        - Changes on pins 3, 5, 6, or 11 may cause the delay() and
          millis() functions to stop working. Other timing-related
          functions may also be affected.
        - Changes on pins 9 or 10 will cause the Servo library to function
          incorrectly.
    Thanks to macegr of the Arduino forums for his documentation of the
    PWM frequency divisors. His post can be viewed at:
