I'm not sure we necessarily want to take this code, I wrote it while prototyping protomatter, using pixelbuf to hold the framebuffer.

It was useful to be able to index the pixels with (row,column) pairs. However, this is probably not the direction we're going to go with protomatter as we'd like to run it with displayio instead.

Previously, the 0th pixel's value was always returned
This is needed for the Protomatter LED matrix

The "565-format" part would not be relevant, that's purely for protomatter

@ladyada any interest in seeing me pursue this in the near term? If not I'll go ahead and close it up without merging. It's not going to be relevant to protomatter or other framebuffer displays.

i think... its not that necessary since you can make a paletted bitmap and just write to that. can close for now :)
