Phil Howard 4d33649cd2 HUB75: More rational DMA/PIO setup/teardown, fixes reset bug
Defensively tear down DMA/PIO so it's in a known good state upon (soft)reset.

Issue was a race condition with DMA interrupts firing and not being achknowledged, leaving a stuck raised IRQ.

The blocking wait for DMA transactions also exacerbated this, turning a borken DMA interrupt and blank screen into an unrecoverable hardlock.

...not that the blank screen was recoverable without a soft reset anyway!

Phil Howard eed7992127 HUB75 Fix intermittent display corruption issue
The FM6126A register write was causing some weirdness on soft reset where the pin state wasn't predictable.

Have twiddled some pins at startup to ensure everything works as expected.

Add set_hsv and set_all_hsv (since setting individual pixels with hsv is S L O W)

Made "flip()" blocking, it was easy to accidentally get a little tearing.

Phil Howard 66d25d2e9c HUB75 Prevent stuck row on soft reset
TODO:

* Move this into drivers/ for C++ use too.
* Display still goes mighty weird sometimes!

Phil Howard 0e8c1228af HUB75 MicroPython DMA and PIO
Switch MicroPython HUB75 driver over to DMA/PIO.

TODO:

* Move this into drivers for C++ use too
* Fix hitting "Stop" in Thonny causing rows to stick on the display (this is bad, and should not happen)
* Fix "Stop -> Start" in Thonny causing weird display issues (it's not memory offets, maybe DMA/PIO issues?)
