What's New in This Release:
now remembers the time and updating the time only when it changes rather than every time the bargraph is recomputed (to reduce the comms load)
detection of song changes without playlist advances (that happens with streamed stuff)
scrolling/marquee of overlong song titles, with an extra space character
fixup of some compiler warnings
made the banner and title-when-not-playing optional, by #define WANTBANNER
added backlight control: on when we play, off when we're stopped (but when paused the light stays on)
added display of total track time, now shows "01:44/17:34"
made freq analyzer optional, via #define WANTANALYZER
if the analyzer is not compiled in, then the extra space is used for:
display of the volume in the lower left corner
display of the current playlist position and the total playlist entries
display of the states repeat/shuffle/no-advance in the bottom right corner volume, playlist and option states are only updated when there are changes, again to keep the comms load down.
