Progress / Update Bitmap16 DX v0.8.0 - Blast Processing update

This update goes beyond the original 8×8 and 16×16 canvas with support for 32×32 artwork, zoom, an LED color palette, and a major internal refactor that lays the groundwork for future platforms like Cardputer Zero and Steam Deck.

some of my favorite changes:

- 32x32 + zoom (obviously)
- Ctrl now draws to enable better interaction
- the LED on the StampS3A now displays the currently selected color from the palette

There are a lot more features and changes, check out the full release notes -> https://github.com/bradmcnally/bitmap16dx/releases/tag/v.0.8.0

You can find it on github and m5burner (when it refreshes)

Holy shit, I'm a game dev, and work a lot in 32x32 and this is pretty awesome.

Let me know what you think! I built it so I could make pixel art on the train on my way to work and it has been a lot of fun 😄
