use as TFT_eSPI replacement #169

is it possible to use this library as a replacement for a real TFT display?

Basically i'd like to replace a global object like this and get the same output in the android app (without any TFT connected to the board):

//TFT_eSPI tft = TFT_eSPI();

DumbDisplay dumbdisplay(new DDInputOutput(115200));
FakeTFT tft = dumbdisplay.createFakeTFT(WIDTH, HEIGHT);

class GraphicalDDLayer seems to have a similar API to TFT_eSPI.

An interesting idea. Will need further investigation on the feasibility.
