This API controls both the PWM period/duty_cycle config and the
enable/disable state.
+There is also a usage_power setting: If set, the PWM driver is only required to
+maintain the power output but has more freedom regarding signal form.
+If supported by the driver, the signal can be optimized, for example to improve
+EMI by phase shifting the individual channels of a chip.
The pwm_config(), pwm_enable() and pwm_disable() functions are just wrappers
around pwm_apply_state() and should not be used if the user wants to change
