## Summary
Continue my changes to introduce the HAL infrastructure from
https://github.com/crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader/pull/522
This PR touches quite a lot of files, but most of them are just name
changing. It should not have any impacts to the end behavior.
## Additional Context
My plan is to firstly add this small shim layer, which sounds useless at
first, but then I'll implement an emulated driver which can be helpful
for testing and for development.
Currently, on my fork, I'm using a FS driver that allow "mounting" a
local directory from my computer to the device, much like the `-v` mount
option on docker. This allows me to quickly reset `.crosspoint`
directory if anything goes wrong. I plan to upstream this feature when
this PR get merged.

## Summary
* **What is the goal of this PR?**
The goal of this PR is to deliver a fix for or at least mitigate the
impact of the issue described in #561
* **What changes are included?**
This PR includes a new option "Sunlight Fading Fix" under "Settings ->
Display".
When set to ON, we will disable the displays analog supply voltage after
every update and turn it back on before the next update.
## Additional Context
* Until now, I was only able to do limited testing because of limited
sunlight at my location, but the fix seems to be working. I'll also
attach a pre-built binary based on 0.16.0 (current master) with the fix
applied to the linked ticket, as building this fix is a bit annoying
because the submodule open-x4-sdk also needs an update.
* [PR in
open-x4-sdk](https://github.com/open-x4-epaper/community-sdk/pull/15)
needs to be merged first, we also need to add another commit to this
here PR, updating this dependency.
* I decided to hide this behind a default-OFF option. While I'm not
really concerned that this fix might potentially damage the display,
someone more knowledgeable on E-Ink technology could maybe have a look
at this.
* There's a binary attached in the linked issue, if someone has the
required sunlight to test this in-depth.

## Summary
Extracted some changes from
https://github.com/crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader/pull/500 to make
reviewing easier
This PR adds HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) for display and GPIO
components, making it easier to write a stub or an emulated
implementation of the hardware.
SD card HAL will be added via another PR, because it's a bit more
tricky.
