Story: Write text to the LCD screen.

Detail: Create an arbitrary line of text, and cause it to be displayed on the LCD screen. For example, this could display "Bridge System" on system startup.

We tried digging into a Teensy library for the LCD driver, but seem like we might not have the correct pin mapping for this to work; we’ll have to look into this more.
