ESP32-C3 Simon

// Simon: a memory game on four buttons and four LEDs.
//
// Wiring, board to breadboard:
//   LEDs (each through a 220 ohm resistor to GND): GPIO 2, 3, 4, 5
//   Buttons (each to GND, internal pull-up):       GPIO 18, 19, 20, 21
//
// The game plays a sequence of one to sixteen lamps, one flash at a time, then
// waits for the same sequence back on the matching buttons. Get it right and
// the sequence grows by one; get it wrong and the game reports how far you got
// and starts over. There is no timeout: the buttons are read in a plain loop,
// so a player can take as long as they like on each step.
//
// `random()` is deliberately left unseeded, so the sequence is the same every
// time the board starts: the yellow lamp on GPIO 3 first, every run. Seeding
// it is the lesson's own closing exercise, and seeding it from micros() here
// would make the first lamp a function of how many instructions setup() took,
// which is not something a sketch should depend on.
