// This routine, for AVR, returns 0x1000000 / d, but trying to get the inverse as
// fast as possible. A fast converging iterative Newton-Raphson method is able to
// reach full precision in just 1 iteration, and takes 211 cycles (worst case, mean
// case is less, up to 30 cycles for small divisors), instead of the 500 cycles a
// normal division would take.
//
// Inspired by the following page,
// https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27801397/newton-raphson-division-with-big-integers
//
// Suppose we want to calculate
// floor(2 ^ k / B) where B is a positive integer
// Then
// B must be <= 2^k, otherwise, the quotient is 0.
//
// The Newton - Raphson iteration for x = B / 2 ^ k yields:
// q[n + 1] = q[n] * (2 - q[n] * B / 2 ^ k)
//
// We can rearrange it as:
// q[n + 1] = q[n] * (2 ^ (k + 1) - q[n] * B) >> k
//
// Each iteration of this kind requires only integer multiplications
// and bit shifts.
// Does it converge to floor(2 ^ k / B) ?: Not necessarily, but, in
// the worst case, it eventually alternates between floor(2 ^ k / B)
// and ceiling(2 ^ k / B)).
// So we can use some not-so-clever test to see if we are in this
// case, and extract floor(2 ^ k / B).
// Lastly, a simple but important optimization for this approach is to
// truncate multiplications (i.e.calculate only the higher bits of the
// product) in the early iterations of the Newton - Raphson method.The
// reason to do so, is that the results of the early iterations are far
// from the quotient, and it doesn't matter to perform them inaccurately.
// Finally, we should pick a good starting value for x. Knowing how many
// digits the divisor has, we can estimate it:
//
// 2^k / x = 2 ^ log2(2^k / x)
// 2^k / x = 2 ^(log2(2^k)-log2(x))
// 2^k / x = 2 ^(k*log2(2)-log2(x))
// 2^k / x = 2 ^ (k-log2(x))
// 2^k / x >= 2 ^ (k-floor(log2(x)))
// floor(log2(x)) simply is the index of the most significant bit set.
//
// If we could improve this estimation even further, then the number of
// iterations can be dropped quite a bit, thus saving valuable execution time.
// The paper "Software Integer Division" by Thomas L.Rodeheffer, Microsoft
// Research, Silicon Valley,August 26, 2008, that is available at

// suggests , for its integer division algorithm, that using a table to supply the
// first 8 bits of precision, and due to the quadratic convergence nature of the
// Newton-Raphon iteration, then just 2 iterations should be enough to get
// maximum precision of the division.
// If we precompute values of inverses for small denominator values, then
