This PR introduces a marquee that displays over the current LCD contents when the marquee buffer is populated by calling a marquee() function with the desired text. I'm now using it to show the weekday in the clock app. Here's a demo!

This could be damned handy for radio messages, or for scrolling the dmesg log, but it slows down checking the day of the week. Perhaps the clock integration should be dropped, and this feature demonstrated within a new dmesg application?

No worries, closing for now.
