v1.1.0

To better support ulab/numpy pixel wrangling we should:

1. Add memoryview() support for accessing underlying pixel data
2. Add memoryview() support for setting underlying pixel data

IE: memoryview(led_strip)[:] = my_pixel_data

This will also make fast, async code easier by allowing the user to watch is_busy() and then perform a simple, fast flip from their local bytearray or numpy.array.

Since Plasma's buffer is stored in pixel order, examples might be a little spicy, but that's the price we pay for fast updates.

v1.0.0 (RELEASED)

1. Get basic builds working
2. Add all relevant pins to pins.csv or I2C/SPI defaults
3. Test pins work
4. Test machine.I2C() works (gives us the Qw'St socket or otherwise some broken out bus)
   • Plasma 2040
   • Plasma Stick 2040
   • Plasma 2350 - I don't seem to have one!
   • Plasma 2350 W
5. Test machine.SPI() gives us the broken-out SPI pins or the SP/CE bus (note, needs id until upstream merge)
   • Plasma 2040 - machine.SPI(0) Lights up Blue LED, uses pins 16, 18, 19. No broken out SPI pins so we need to disable default instances
   • Plasma Stick 2040
   • Plasma 2350
   • Plasma 2350 W
6. Port examples:
   • Use machine.Pin("NAME") instead of the old imported pin defs
   • Use machine.I2C() instead of PimoroniI2C (this has been supported for ages, but machine.I2C() only recently supported a clean, no-args, default instance.
   • Use ezwifi/secrets.py

Features

• Added default PIO, SM, Clock and Data arguments to APA102 and PIO, SM, Data to WS2812
• Move pin definitions from plasma_stick, plasma2040 module import to pins.csv - eg: machine.Pin("PLASMA_DAT")
• Add async update and is_busy method
• Added default args to RGBLED so it picks up LED_R, LED_G, and LED_B pins if available.
