This adds minimal support for the display - including a 14 segment font.
(Looks like this is the first 14 segment display to be supported by
lcdproc.)
Tested on linux.

In the documentation replace the list of the connection types for hd44780
driver with the table also used in the configuration options description
(use only a single place to list and link everyting). While there, remove the
assembly code for lcdserializer.
backlight handling:
Previously if keypad=yes was configured in LCDd.conf a value for the
backlight was sent, regardless of the configuration in hd44780-serial.c.
Now it decides upon the backlight flag from that file (enabling it in
LCDd.conf is still required). If the backlight flag indicates the device
supports backlight, the backlight_on / backlight_off values are sent (even
if they are 0x00)!
the original font of the HD44780 with European character set, but includes
only characters from ISO 8859-1 and has been extended with bar graph and icons.
The t6963 driver now has its size to be configured in pixels! The size in
characters is automatically calculated based on the cell size. This makes
internal calculations more easy.
- Add 68-familiy style interface support and make it configurable.
- Make delay configurable.
- Correct swapped display halves.
- Resurrect vBar / hBar functions.
- Fix icon definitions and modify set_char for common data format.
- Limit the maximum size to 40x16 (240x128 pixel) and change the RAM locations
to make use of 8 KB only. (If one's display is larger and has more memory this
may have to be changed.)
- Drive control lines using defines from lpt-port.h without using a function.
- Use timing.h for delays (which are now optional).
- Remove any use of the graphic area and mode settings, except for optionally
clearing of graphic memory on start-up.
- Remove any cursor related stuff.
- Handle displays correctly which width (in pixels) is not a multiple of the
cellwidth (e.g. 128x64).
- Remove double buffering (display updates are already really fast).
- Update text and font memory using AUTO WRITE function.
- Remove the bignum stub. Now at least something is displayed.
- Fix character offset for bar graphs.
- Make local functions static and inline the most commonly used read / write
functions.
- Remove instructions that have been transfered to the User's Guide.
- Remove the unused line drawing function.
- Pass through indent.
- Add more comments to the initialization code.
- In the user guide remove table with wiring scheme by LCD pin but add a new
one for bitshaker wiring.
* Add Doxygen comments (also for internal functions, shortened for API).
* Document initialization.
* Remove some unused variables and defines.
* Pass through indent.
* Remove references to LCD pins from documentation and add some warning.
