and gpio slowdown values.
o Add gpio slowdown to the values that can be modified programmatically
and with flags.
o Have the default flags passed into CreateMatrixFromFlags() also be
an output value, so that the settings read from the flags can be
used back in the user program.

swap programmatically. That way, nobody has to re-compile just for
these options, which makes things more easy to distribute as library.

o SwapOnVSync(): make it possible to choose a fraction of the refresh-rate
...
as animation timing for applications that want to lock the update
to the refresh rate.
Usually, the refresh rate in the several hundred Hz range is not
as useful for that.
Adds a feature that emerged in a discussion in issue #184 .

o Add new transformers to provide logical Canvases that are transformed
...
before writing to another physical Canvas.
- RotateTransformer: rotates by multiple of 90 degrees
- LargeSquare64x64Transformer: does the 64x64 conversion from
earlier examples
- LinkedTransformer allows to have a sequence of transformers
applied.
o Provide a flag in demo-main to influence rotation.
