## Screen Rotation
All drivers implement physical screen coordinates. The rotation is the property of the graphical environment that sit on top of the drivers. As such, all rotation related methods have been moved outside of the driver classes.
Added support for `idf.py` development, as provided by tajnymag.

Version 0.9.6:
- Added MCP presence detection. With chips shortage issues, some Inkplate devices (Inkplate-10, Inkplate-6PLUS) may have their second MCP chip missing. The `mcp_ext.is_present()` method can be used to check its availability. Log information messages are produced indicating if MCPs are detected as present or not.
Version 0.9.5:
- Corrected issue with PlatformIO Espressif32 version 3.3.0 (wifi_interface_t vs esp_interface_t)
- Added InkPlate-6PLUS support: Screen, Touch Screen, Front Light. `INKPLATE_6PLUS` must be defined to compile for this device. For the TouchScreen class, TouchPositions has been defined as an array of 2 entries to minimize the potential of bad methods parameters.
- Some code refactoring in drivers.
- I2C speed lowered to 100Khz instead of 1Mhz (Wire class). This to respect I2C hardware limitation related to the PullUp resistors in used with Inkplate devices.
- Added Inkplate::lightSleep() and Inkplate::deepSleep() methods, calling the InkplatePlatform class methods
- InkplatePlatform::light_sleep() and InkplatePlatform::deep_sleep() methods modified to get gpio number and level as parameters
- Inkplate::begin() method now allows for one parameter to enable/disable the SDCard initialization. Disabled by default.
- For the InkPlate-6PLUS, the Inkplate::begin() method takes a second paremeter: a handler function pointer to process touch_screen interrupts.
- Added RTC PCF85063 support.
