Frame Buffer - initial minimal version

[Avoncliff]

I am learning about all this.....both rasp and github
So this is me playing with bare metal and trying out frame buffer code. There is a lot more to do to produce a usable output on screen, but I have got as far as displaying a single char.
Do let me know if this is of interest, and what direction you are thinking of taking the project.

This is great! I think cherry picking the C api is really smart. Why hasnt this gotten an update or more attention? I'm considering dedicating some time to this project and want to help.

This very ambitious PR attempted to take the project is a very different direction than I had originally intended. At this point I would recommend creating your own fork to explore further extensions.

The base project has also become stale (targeting the original RPi) and I don't have the bandwidth to modernize and maintain it. So it serves best as an historical example that might provide a foundation for future work (in a separate project). I look forward to seeing what others can build with this project as inspiration, just as I was inspired by JonesForth.
