Version 1.0.0

PicoVision release firmware.

Includes GPU firmware v1.0.0 - https://github.com/MichaelBell/pico-stick/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Known Issues

In some cases configuring a scroll group in one mode, and then switching to another might cause a GPU crash (red screen of doom). This happened in Sneks but was fixed by resetting scroll offsets before configuring new groups: 977d6cc
