Merge #1345

1345: Added a neopixel constructor to spi, with an example in the stm32g0 d… r=Dirbaio a=smeenka

For Spi I added the possibility to use the Spi device as a Neopixel driver, with very precise timing, and not dependent on software during the transfer. Even without the --release flag, the timing is perfect.
Note that between the bursts of data the Mosi line should stay on low level. A resistor of 10k can guarantee that, as it seems the the pin is floating between the bursts (on the nucleo-G070RB platform I use).
I created an example for the STM32G0 family.
This example  does contain a very simple Neopixel driver, only for one type. But this Neopixel driver can easy be adapted to different types (for example RGBW types).
