Vector (Hershey) fonts.
These are aligned horizontally (x) to their left edge, but vertically (y) to their midline excluding descenders [i.e., aligned at top edge of lower case letter m]. At `scale=1`, the top edge of upper case letters is 10 pixels above the specified `y`, text baseline is 10 pixels below the specified `y`, and descenders go down to 20 pixels below the specified `y`.

Sometimes you might want to measure a text string for centering or alignment on screen, you can do this with:
```python
width = display.measure_text(text, scale, spacing)
width = display.measure_text(text, scale, spacing, fixed_width)
```
The height of each Bitmap font is explicit in its name.
