Xuan-Son Nguyen b45eaf7ded feat: optimize fillRectDither (#737)
## Summary

This PR optimizes the `fillRectDither` function, making it as fast as a
normal `fillRect`

Testing code:

```cpp
  {
    auto start_t = millis();
    renderer.fillRectDither(0, 0, renderer.getScreenWidth(), renderer.getScreenHeight(), Color::LightGray);
    auto elapsed = millis() - start_t;
    Serial.printf("[%lu] [   ] Test fillRectDither drawn in %lu ms\n", millis(), elapsed);
  }

  {
    auto start_t = millis();
    renderer.fillRect(0, 0, renderer.getScreenWidth(), renderer.getScreenHeight(), true);
    auto elapsed = millis() - start_t;
    Serial.printf("[%lu] [   ] Test fillRect drawn in %lu ms\n", millis(), elapsed);
  }
```

Before:

```
[1125] [   ] Test fillRectDither drawn in 327 ms
[1347] [   ] Test fillRect drawn in 222 ms
```

After:

```
[1065] [ ] Test fillRectDither drawn in 238 ms
[1287] [ ] Test fillRect drawn in 222 ms
```

## Details

The original version is quite slow because it does quite a lot of
computations. A single pixel needs around 20 instructions just to know
if it's black or white:

/>

With the new, templated and more light-weight approach, each pixel takes
only 3-4 instructions, the modulo operator is translated into bitwise
ops:
