/**
 * @brief Hardware abstraction for writing framebuffers to SPI-based color
 * displays.
 *
 * DeviceOutput provides a unified interface for sending RGB565 framebuffer data
 * to common embedded display controllers (ST7735, ST7789, ILI9341, HX8357)
 * using the Arduino SPI API.
 *
 * Features:
 * - Handles X/Y offsets for displays that require them (via driver)
 * - Supports configurable color order (RGB/BGR) via RGB565
 * - Initialization sequence and address window logic delegated to driver
 * - Optional hardware reset pin (via driver)
 * - Efficient bulk framebuffer transfer
 *
 * Usage:
 *   DeviceOutput out(new ILI9341Driver(spi, cs, dc, rst), 240, 320);
 *   out.writeData(framebuffer);
 *
 * @note For color order, set RGB565::setColorOrderBGR(true/false) as needed for
 * your display, before creating any data.
