Allow adjustment of the PCA9685 PWM frequency to be lowered to increase low-speed DC motor torque. Retain the default of 1600Hz for other purposes.

Setting a PWM frequency of < 125Hz will significantly lower DC motor spin threshold and increase low-speed torque. Tests were performed with RF-500TB12x/18x and TT-gearbox motors.
