You should probably ask somewhere where RPi hardware experts hang out.
I do not claim to have an answer, but I have an opinion: Having an OS
like Linux generate the fine-grained timing, also if you manage to use
hardware PWM. Using a dedicated processor for generating the timing,
either over USB or a piggyback thing like

Please let us know what you come up with.
