Add graphics library for HDMI #5

Closed mchlmmc closed 6 years ago

CirnOS only supports writing text to the screen as output. For a more useful system, CirnOS should also be able to render solid shapes, curves, rotated objects and bitmap images to the screen. Different sizes of font would be a useful addition as well.

Look for a lightweight library that can draw bitmap images and shapes, and add it to the hdmi.c and hdmi.h files. Ideally the graphics library should leave behind no dependencies -- everything will remain contained in hdmi.c and hdmi.h.

I have decided that this is too complicated for CirnOS. This graphics library should be an externally loaded file, not part of core CirnOS.
