Add cover image display in *Continue Reading* card with framebuffer caching (#200)
## Summary

* **What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Fixes a bug in the user
authentication module,

Display the book cover image in the **"Continue Reading"** card on the
home screen, with fast navigation using framebuffer caching.

* **What changes are included?**

- Display book cover image in the "Continue Reading" card on home screen
- Load cover from cached BMP (same as sleep screen cover)
- Add framebuffer store/restore functions (`copyStoredBwBuffer`,
`freeStoredBwBuffer`) for fast navigation after initial render
- Fix `drawBitmap` scaling bug: apply scale to offset only, not to base
coordinates
- Add white text boxes behind title/author/continue reading label for
readability on cover
- Support both EPUB and XTC file cover images
- Increase HomeActivity task stack size from 2048 to 4096 for cover
image rendering

## Additional Context

* Add any other information that might be helpful for the reviewer
(e.g., performance implications, potential risks, specific areas to
focus on).

- Performance: First render loads cover from SD card (~800ms),
subsequent navigation uses cached framebuffer (~instant)
- Memory: Framebuffer cache uses ~48KB (6 chunks × 8KB) while on home
screen, freed on exit
- Fallback: If cover image is not available, falls back to standard
text-only display
- The `drawBitmap` fix corrects a bug where screenY = (y + offset) scale
was incorrectly scaling the base coordinates. Now correctly uses screenY
= y + (offset scale)

Fix BMP rendering gamma/brightness (#302)
1. Refactor Bitmap.cpp/h to expose the options for FloydSteinberg and
brightness/gamma correction at runtime
2. Fine-tune the thresholds for Floyd Steiberg and simple quantization
to better match the display's colors

Turns out that 2 is enough to make the images render properly, so the
brightness boost and gamma adjustment doesn't seem necessary currently
(at least for my test image).

Feature/cover crop mode (#225)
Added a setting to select `fit` or `crop` for cover image on sleep
screen.

Might add a `expand` feature in the future that does not crop but rather
fills the blank space with a mirror of the image.

Add exFAT support (#150)
## Summary

* Swap to updated SDCardManager which uses SdFat
* Add exFAT support
  * Swap to using FsFile everywhere
* Use newly exposed `SdMan` macro to get to static instance of
SDCardManager
* Move a bunch of FsHelpers up to SDCardManager

Improve EPUB cover image quality with pre-scaling and Atkinson dithering (#116)
## Summary

* **What is the goal of this PR?**

Replace simple threshold-based grayscale quantization with ordered
dithering using a 4x4 Bayer matrix. This eliminates color banding
artifacts and produces smoother gradients on e-ink display.

* **What changes are included?**

- Add 4x4 Bayer dithering matrix for 16-level threshold patterns
- Modify `grayscaleTo2Bit()` function to accept pixel coordinates and
apply position-based dithering
- Replace simple `grayscale >> 6` threshold with ordered dithering
algorithm that produces smoother gradients

## Additional Context

* Bayer matrix approach: The 4x4 Bayer matrix creates a repeating
pattern that distributes quantization error spatially, effectively
simulating 16 levels of gray using only 4 actual color levels (black,
dark gray, light gray, white).

* Cache invalidation: Existing cached `cover.bmp` files will need to be
deleted to see the improved rendering, as the converter only runs when
the cache is missing.

Book cover sleep screen (#89)
## Summary

* Fix issue with 2-bit bmp rendering
* Add support generate book cover BMP from JPG and use as sleep screen

## Additional Context

* It does not support other image formats beyond JPG at this point
* Something is cooked with my JpegToBmpConverter logic, it generates
weird interlaced looking images for some JPGs

Custom sleep screen support with BMP reading (#57)
## Summary

* Builds on top of
https://github.com/daveallie/crosspoint-reader/pull/16 - adresses
https://github.com/daveallie/crosspoint-reader/discussions/14
* This PR adds the ability for the user to supply a custom `sleep.bmp`
image at the root of the SD card that will be shown instead of the
default sleep screen if present.
* Supports:
  * Different BPPs:
    * 1bit
    * 2bit
    * 8bit
    * 24bit
    * 32bit (with alpha-channel ignored)
  * Grayscale rendering
