This demo is based on the GD32W515P-EVAL-V1.0 board, it shows how to
use DMA with TIMER0 update request to transfer data from memory
to TIMER0 capture compare register 0.
TIMER0CLK is fixed to systemcoreclock, the TIMER0 prescaler is equal to 179
so the TIMER0 counter clock used is 1MHz.
The objective is to configure TIMER0 channel 0(PA8) to generate PWM signal with
a frequency equal to 1KHz and a variable duty cycle(25%,50%,75%) that is changed
by the DMA after a specific number of Update DMA request.
The number of this repetitive requests is defined by the TIMER0 repetition counter,
each 2 update requests, the TIMER0 Channel 0 duty cycle changes to the next new
value defined by the buffer.
