Currently wasp-os enables a narrow set of applications because we don't
want to consume RAM by importing the module and constructing the
application. We can improve on this situation by providing a small
(stateless) application that can be used to enable or diable applications.
This allows all the ROMed applications to be enabled using the GUI
without compromising on the ability to develop applications.
In fact this application significantlly reduces the RAM consumed in the
default case becasue the Self Test app does not need to maintain its
state.

We are able to add this to the self tests without having to create a
special page. Instead we can modify the existing notifications test
to utilize the spinner.

Currently all lines are a single pixel wide. To draw wider lines we
must draw two parallel lines with a single pixel offset and this is
a *very* inefficient approach, espeically on ST7789 where we spend
longer setting the clipping window than we do drawing each pixel.
Fix this by constructing a line using a variable sized square rather than
a single pixel. This will "overdraw" (some pixels will be drawn more than
once) but since square blocks can be efficiently transferred to the
display the overdraw is acceptable.
Note: It is a difficult decision whether to maintain the convention that
color is the last argument or to keep compatibility with existing
line drawing tests. This patch opts for the former and fixes up
all uses within the existing codebase.

This is the API:
drawable.line(x1, y1, x2, y2, color)
The function has optimizations for the case of vertical or horizontal lines.

This requires a modified version of Gadgetbridge and currently works by
implementing the BangleJS protocol.
In Gadgetbridge ensure "Sync time" is *not* set and choose "Don't pair"
when adding the PineTime device.
If an application crashes let's report it on the device so it can be
distinguished from a hang (if nothing else it should mean we get better
bug reports).
As we enrich the navigation options we will increasinly need to visualize
between apps where up/down will switch us between rings and there
up/down is needed to scroll through content.
Here the biggest changes are in the test application because we
refactor a number of the tests to make better use of the button.
Although applications may consume button events it does have a
default behavior which is to switch to the default application
(usually the clock).
After a bit of testing I have not yet come up with a fast, visually
acceptable horizontal animated effect. Instead we simply reply on
screen blanking during the redraw... meaning there is no need for an
effect hint.
This is a big change that break compatiblity with existing applications
*and* with existing installed versions of main.py.
When upgrading it is import to update main.py:
./tools/wasptool --upload wasp/main.py
This is something of an experiment but now the app roll is traversed using
horizontal swipes and applications should primarily use vertical swipes
to navigate internally. This is mostly because if "feels" better but it
also leaves the vertical scrolling hardware available for use by the
app.
Moving it from applications into the watch is useful for two reasons.
Firstly it means applications don't need to know as much about the
display color depth and secondly it makes it easier to replace the
drawing routines with wasptool.
