The generateRandomSeed() function was moved from the Arduboy2Base class
to the Arduboy2Core class, since it deals directly with hardware.
It was also made static.
Some related documentation was changed.

Same as SPItransfer() but also returns the byte received.
Provided for use with homemade or expanded units that have had
additional peripherals added to the SPI bus that are capable of
sending data.
The lcdBootProgram[] array, containing the commands to initialize
the OLED display, isn't considered to be part of the API.
To enforce this, and to avoid the possibility of conflicts from
other code using the same name, it has been changed from being a
global variable to a protected member of the Arduboy2Core class.
Suggested and developed by @Pharap
The mainNoUSB() function was never intended to be used directly in
sketches. To help prevent this, it has been made a private member of
a new class, Arduboy2NoUSB, which declares main() as a friend.
The ARDUBOY_NO_USB macro has been modified appropriately.
The Arduboy2Core class now inherits Arduboy2NoUSB, for sketches that
improperly have their own main() which calls the old version of
mainNoUSB() instead of using the ARDUBOY_NO_USB macro.
Includes some suggestions and guidance by @Pharap
API:
- Rename non-API function swap() to swapInt16()
- Make swapInt16(), drawCircleHelper(), fillCircleHelper() and
struct BitStreamReader protected members of Arduboy2Base
- Add #define ARDUBOY_UNIT_NAME_BUFFER_SIZE for the size of a buffer
to hold a Unit Name
- Move the position of the PROGMEM keyword for lcdBootProgram[]
for consistency
Documentation:
- Remove absolute values referring to a Unit Name
- More details relating to the use of the Unit Name
- More details relating to the font and text functions
- Other minor documentation changes and spelling corrections
Macro ARDUBOY_NO_USB will provide a substitute main() which will cause
the compiler to leave out the USB code. The macro also adds a check
for the DOWN button being pressed and, if so, will call the new
exitToBootloader() function.
New function exitToBootloader() will invoke the bootloader in command
mode, similar to pressing reset.
- setRGBled() has been rewritten to directly control the hardware
instead of using the Arduino analogWrite() function.
- Added a two parameter version of setRGBled() that sets the brightness
of one LED without affecting the others.
- Added function freeRGBled() for freeing the PWM control of the LEDs
so they can be used digitally.
- Added example sketch RGBled.
Same as Arduino delay() except takes a 16 bit value.
Mainly added to save some code in the library but can be used by
sketches for the same purpose.
Also changed a delay in bootLogoText() to match a previous change in
bootLogo()
displayOff() puts the display in low power mode.
displayOn() re-initializes the display after displayOff() is used.
The SPI initialization code was separated from the display
initialization code to facilitate the new functions.
- Timer 0 is disabled in flashlight() and safeMode() in case its
variables overlap the bootloader "magic key" location.
- Flashlight mode never exits if invoked.
- Made safeMode() public for use as a smaller code size alternative
to flashlight().
This eliminates calls to pinMode(), digitalWrite(), functions to
initialize hardware, etc.
New 2 parameter version of digitalWriteRGB() added, which sets an
individual RGB LED on or off digitally.
New function SPItransfer() added to replace Arduino SPI.transfer().
