Jeremy Klein 4ee406897b feat: tiled grayscale rendering to drop the storeBwBuffer peak (#2106)
Tiled grayscale rendering to drop the storeBwBuffer peak largest
contiguous free block (the value that actually drives OOM on the C3)
from ~114 KB to ~82-90 KB.

This renders each grayscale plane band-by-band into a small (~8 KB)
scratch and
streams each band straight to controller RAM (community-sdk
writeGrayscalePlaneStrip), leaving the BW framebuffer intact. No save,
no
restore; controller RAM is re-synced for the next differential turn
directly
from the live framebuffer.

Three writers honor the active band target so per-band re-rendering
stays cheap
and correct:

- drawPixel (text) redirects writes to the band scratch and clips to it.
- renderCharImpl skips glyphs whose physical y-extent is outside the
band before
the bitmap decode (glyphIntersectsStrip), so the per-band re-render
doesn't
  pay N x glyph decode.
- DirectPixelWriter (images) writes the band scratch via getWriteTarget
instead
  of the framebuffer. Without this, image pixels wrote the live BW frame
directly and cleanup re-synced that corruption, leaving thin outlines
after
  navigating away from an image.

Controller specifics live in the SDK (X4 setRamArea windowing, X3 PTL);
the
reader checks supportsStripGrayscale() and is otherwise
controller-agnostic.

Measured on hardware (X4 and X3, text and images, visually correct):

- Grayscale scratch ~8 KB vs ~50 KB save; largest contiguous free block
held at
  full size during grayscale instead of dropping ~25-32 KB.
- X4 text page about +25 ms/page; X3 page time is dominated by its
intrinsic
  grayscale refresh, not tiling.

Depends on community-sdk #13 (the writeGrayscalePlaneStrip API). The
submodule
bump here points at that branch, so until #13 merges the submodule won't
resolve
from upstream and CI will fail there; keeping this a draft until then.
Will
rebase onto master and re-point the submodule to the merged SDK commit
once #13
lands.

This directory is intended for project specific (private) libraries.
PlatformIO will compile them to static libraries and link into the executable file.

The source code of each library should be placed in a separate directory
("lib/your_library_name/[Code]").

For example, see the structure of the following example libraries `Foo` and `Bar`:

|--lib
|  |
|  |--Bar
|  |  |--docs
|  |  |--examples
|  |  |--src
|  |     |- Bar.c
|  |     |- Bar.h
|  |  |- library.json (optional. for custom build options, etc) https://docs.platformio.org/page/librarymanager/config.html
|  |
|  |--Foo
|  |  |- Foo.c
|  |  |- Foo.h
|  |
|  |- README --> THIS FILE
|
|- platformio.ini
|--src
   |- main.c

Example contents of `src/main.c` using Foo and Bar:
```
#include <Foo.h>
#include <Bar.h>

int main (void)
{
  ...
}

```

The PlatformIO Library Dependency Finder will find automatically dependent
libraries by scanning project source files.
