## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Compress reader font bitmaps to reduce flash usage by 30.7%.
**What changes are included?**
- New `EpdFontGroup` struct and extended `EpdFontData` with
`groups`/`groupCount` fields
- `--compress` flag in `fontconvert.py`: groups glyphs (ASCII base group
+ groups of 8) and compresses each with raw DEFLATE
- `FontDecompressor` class with 4-slot LRU cache for on-demand
decompression during rendering
- `GfxRenderer` transparently routes bitmap access through
`getGlyphBitmap()` (compressed or direct flash)
- Uses `uzlib` for decompression with minimal heap overhead.
- 48 reader fonts (Bookerly, NotoSans 12-18pt, OpenDyslexic) regenerated
with compression; 5 UI fonts unchanged
- Round-trip verification script (`verify_compression.py`) runs as part
of font generation
## Additional Context
## Flash & RAM
| | baseline | font-compression | Difference |
|--|--------|-----------------|------------|
| Flash (ELF) | 6,302,476 B (96.2%) | 4,365,022 B (66.6%) | -1,937,454 B
(-30.7%) |
| firmware.bin | 6,468,192 B | 4,531,008 B | -1,937,184 B (-29.9%) |
| RAM | 101,700 B (31.0%) | 103,076 B (31.5%) | +1,376 B (+0.5%) |
## Script-Based Grouping (Cold Cache)
Comparison of uncompressed baseline vs script-based group compression
(4-slot LRU cache, cleared each page). Glyphs are grouped by Unicode
block (ASCII, Latin-1, Latin Extended-A, Combining Marks, Cyrillic,
General Punctuation, etc.) instead of sequential groups of 8.
### Render Time
| | Baseline | Compressed (cold cache) | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Median** | 414.9 ms | 431.6 ms | +16.7 ms (+4.0%) |
| **Pages** | 37 | 37 | |
### Memory Usage
| | Baseline | Compressed (cold cache) | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Heap free (median)** | 187.0 KB | 176.3 KB | -10.7 KB |
| **Heap free (min)** | 186.0 KB | 166.5 KB | -19.5 KB |
| **Largest block (median)** | 148.0 KB | 128.0 KB | -20.0 KB |
| **Largest block (min)** | 148.0 KB | 120.0 KB | -28.0 KB |
### Cache Effectiveness
| | Misses/page | Hit rate |
|---|---|---|
| **Compressed (cold cache)** | 2.1 | 99.85% |

Implementation was done by Claude Code (Opus 4.6) based on a plan
developed collaboratively. All generated font headers were verified with
an automated round-trip decompression test. The firmware was compiled
successfully but has not yet been tested on-device.
