TM1638plus: the LED&KEY board’s digits, LEDs and buttons

// LED and key: a TM1638 "LED&KEY" board with the TM1638plus library. Each
// button lights the LED above it while held, and the display counts the
// presses and names the last button.
//
//   TM1638  STB -> 4, CLK -> 6, DIO -> 7, VCC -> 5 V, GND -> GND
//
// The TM1638 holds the picture itself and scans the buttons itself, so the
// sketch only sends bytes: STB low, then each byte least significant bit
// first, clocked on CLK's rising edge. readButtons() sends 0x42 and the chip
// answers with four bytes on DIO, one bit per button once they are folded
// together.
//
// Things to try. Press two buttons at once. Then change the brightness in
// setup() from 2 to 7, and to 0.
