Updates the PWM implementation for the PiFire PWM PCB grill platform to use the built-in hardware PWM generator on the Raspberry Pi SoC. This resolves https://github.com/nebhead/PiFire/issues/156.
Previous implementation used gpiozero software PWM; this implementation uses rpi_hardware_pwm library.
This is a breaking commit, as the hardware PWM function requires:
1) Installing the rpi-hardware-pwm library
sudo pip install rpi-hardware-pwm
2) Adding this line to the end of /boot/config.txt, and rebooting:
dtoverlay=pwm,pin=13,func=4
Once these two changes are done, this commit will enable hardware PWM.
