- Use standard RIOT style `ina2xx_params_t` on initialization as explained in
[1] instead of a custom API
- Provided a default configuration via `ina2xx_params_t` as required by [1] that
works fine for the INA219 breakout board and with an optimal resolution that
still covers the whole range of USB high-power devices (500 mA @ 5V) with a
comfortable safe margin.
- Changed initialization procedure to include a device reset and connectivity
test, as required by [1]
- The calibration value is now calculated by the driver
- This simplifies using the driver a lot
- The user can still choose a trade-off between range and resolution that
matches the application requirements, but now among predefined values
- This allows the driver to easily convert the raw data into meaningful
physical data, as the resolution of the raw data is known
- All measurements are provided as meaningful physical data as required by [1]

The INA219 has the exact same interface as the INA220 (including values and
semantics of the configuration register). Thus, this driver can be used for
both. The ina220 has been renamed to ina2xx to reflect this and pseudo modules
for the ina220 and ina219 have been added.
Added driver for the WS2812/SK6812 RGB LEDs often sold as NeoPixels, which due
to their integrated RGB controller can be chained to arbitrary length and
controlled with a single GPIO.
This reverts commit cf01c743a8.
Adding an unexplained delay seemed wrong in the first place, but it fixed
the display on the MCB2388.
Turns out the display was erroneously operating in 8-bit mode due to the
uninitialized flag register.
Why the delay helped here I don't know.
But with #12634 fixing this, this hack is not needed anymore.
The driver can only be used with either 4 or 8 bit modes. Checking if the 5th pin is set in the configuration is enough the determine if 8bit mode should be used or not
