Fast SPI library for the ST7789 IPS display optimized for AVR Arduinos
Replaces obsolete Arduino_ST7789_Fast: https://github.com/cbm80amiga/Arduino_ST7789_Fast
Significantly optimized for 16MHz AVR Arduino boards (2.5-5x faster than other libraries).
Achieved 7.1Mbps SPI transfer rate (at DIV2/16MHz clock).
In compatiliblity mode it should work with other MCUs, but I didn't test all configurations.
For STM32 (BluePill) there is separate optimized version here: https://github.com/cbm80amiga/Arduino_ST7789_STM

Use #define COMPATIBILITY_MODE - then the library should work on all Arduino compatible boards
Remove above define for the best performance on 16MHz AVR
Use #define CS_ALWAYS_LOW for LCD boards where CS pin is internally connected to the ground, it gives better performance
Tested with Arduino IDE 1.6.5 and Adafruit_GFX 1.5.6
- invertDisplay()
- sleepDisplay()
- enableDisplay()
- idleDisplay() - saves power by limiting colors to 3 bit mode (8 colors)
- resetDisplay() - software reset
- partialDisplay() and setPartArea() - limiting display area for power saving
- setScrollArea() and setScroll() - smooth vertical scrolling
- fast drawImage() from RAM
- fast drawImage() from flash (PROGMEM)
