/*
  Fade RGB LED Smoothly through 4 colours
  Fades an RGB LED using PWM smoothly through 4 different colours pausing for 1.5 seconds on each colour.
  
  Connect an common Cathode RGB LED with appropriate resistors on each anode to your Arduino Uno; 
  Red to pin 11, Green to pin 10, Blue to pin 9, Cathode to GND.
