* setPixelColor: ensure that 0/0 is used
* getPixelColor: accuracy improvements
unfortunately, "scrolling" audioreactive effects are still not working properly - they end after 1/4 of the circle. Could be due to limited resolution of getPixelColor.
fixing holes that appeared during testing
* at 52x52 (big 296 -> 304)
* at 24x32 (medium 192 -> 208)
* at 12x16 (small 72 -> 82)
... there is still one hole at 14x16 ... well wtf
- several compile warning fixes
- multipin LED compile config
- release info (update page, JSON "info")
- WiFi scan fix if no networks found
- UI glitch when no presets are found fix
With multipin LED config it is now possible to assign GPIO to PWM RGB outputs.
Achieved by having length of DATA_PINS be divisble by lengt of PIXEL_COUNTS.
-changes save roughly 600bytes of flash
-made blurring faster by not writing the color and then reading it back but keeping it as a variable: on a C3, FX black hole goes from 55FPS to 71FPS
-added optional parameter to blur (smear) that can be used in combination with SEGMENT.clear(), blurring the frame without dimming the current frame (repeated calls without clearing will result in white). this is useful to blur without 'motion blurring' being added
-scale8 is inlined and repeated calls uses flash, plus it is slower than native 32bit, so I added 'color_scale' function which is native 32bit and scales 32bit colors (RGBW).
- transitions always enabled (use delay 0 to disable)
- optimisation in on/off fade
- fix for palette/color blend when blending style is not fade
- various tweaks and optimisations
-added fully random palette function ('the old way', currently just used for initialization)
-changed randomness values to make it a little less random
-added 10% chance for pastel color palette
-now using swap() from std library for shuffeling
-changed function name
-moved update check from loadPalette() to handleRandomPalette() saving CPU cycles
I've found a code spellchecker, so this is what can be corrected easily. Changes are only affecting comments, readme and a few user-visible strings. So no functional impact expected.

this is a band-aid fix for random crashes when switching between presets with multiple segments - crossfade disabled.
!! adding type initializers fixed it for me on -S3, however I still see (less frequent) crashes on esp32, due to heap corruption.
It took me hours to get a meaningful stackdump:
assert failed: heap_caps_free heap_caps.c:360 (heap != NULL && "free() target pointer is outside heap areas")

turns out that fastLED 3.6.0 has an explicit uint32_t operator that returns RGBA, however 3.5.0 does not have this and the conversion returned only the "red" component".
it seems that SEGMENT.blur() is the main bottleneck for many 2D effects.
This change optimizes performance of the function:
* avoid to re-write unchanged pixels
* early exit when blur_amount == 0 (=nothing to do)
* use _fast_ types where possible
I've seen up to 20% speedup with this change.
power estimation results from estimateCurrentAndLimitBri() were too low (example: estimated 1.3Amp, measured 1.6Amp). This change corrects the power calculation. Due to the changed behavior of getPixelColor, powerSum must be used as-is, not scaled down again by brightness.
this optimization avoids to apply brightness two times .
NeoPixelBusLg has already applied global brightness at sPC. Due to internal working of the Lg bus, its sufficient to only post-apply scaling, and set the new (scaled) brightness for the next frame.
I still see strange crashes in setPixelColor/GetpixelColor, which ssem to come from race conditions between async_tcp (change presets) and looptask (strip.service).
To make the situation better, its important that any global pointers are reset to NULL immediately after free().
* Avoid uint16 underflow in width() and height(): stop > start is possible, and means "inactive segment".
Without these checks, it was possible that width() and height() produce VERY large values due to underflow.
* adding an optional parameter to setBrightness(). ApplyPostAdjustments() will only be called if `immediate=true`. Only ABL will use immediate=true, to ensure electrical safety of equipment.
This allows some optimizations of performance, as ApplyPostAdjustments() is time consuming.
* busses.setBrightness(bri) --> applied to all future pixels (fast, lossless)
* busses.setBrightness(bri, true) --> applied directly to all previously set pixels (slower, lossy)
