This library supports the old Raspberry Pi's Version 1 with 26 pin header and
also the B+ models, the Pi Zero, Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 with 40 pins, as well
as the Compute Modules which have 44 GPIOs.

The Raspberry Pi 5 still needs some research into the vastly changed peripherals
and is not yet supported.

This supports the old Raspberry Pi's Version 1 with 26 pin header and also the
B+ models, the Pi Zero, Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 with 40 pins, as well as the
Compute Modules which have 44 GPIOs.
The 26 pin models can drive one chain of RGB panels, the 40 pin models
**up to three** chains in parallel (each chain 12 or more panels long).
The Compute Module can drive **up to 6 chains in parallel**.
