15c77f2465 Remove unused code.
Add a new DHGRBitmap class that efficiently represents the
DHGR interleaving of the (aux, main) MemoryMap as a sequence of
28-bit integers.

This allows for easily extracting the 8-bit and 12-bit subsequences
representing the DHGR pixels that are influenced when storing a byte
at offsets 0..3 within the interleaved (aux, main, aux, main)
sequence.

Since we have precomputed all of the pairwise differences between
these 8- and 12-bit values, this allows us to efficiently compute the
edit distances between pairs of screen bytes (and/or arrays)

494503aa88 Precompute the edit distance between the 8-bit (2-pixel) and 12-bit
(3-pixel) sequences that may be modified when storing bytes to the
DHGR display.

This relies on producing an efficient linear representation of the
DHGR framebuffer in terms of a packed 28-bit representation of (Aux,
Main, Aux, Main) screen bytes.

differences between these colours, using CIE2000 delta values.

bd0aa6ad6b Simplify the accounting of audio ticks in video framing, and fix an off-by-one that was causing audio and video to become desynchronized.
Switch from 14340Hz to 14700Hz, which is 44100/3 i.e. a divisor of the
most common audio input sample rate.  This gives better quality
(and/or faster to encode) audio quality at the cost of producing <2%
faster playback.

10fa4bc72d Proof of concept DHGR encoding/playback
- Every time we process an ACK opcode, toggle page 1/page 2 soft
  switches to steer subsequent writes between MAIN and AUX memory
- while I'm here, squeeze out some unnecessary operations from the
  buffer management

On the player side, this is implemented by maintaining two screen
memory maps, and alternating between opcode streams for each of them.
This is using entirely the wrong colour model for errors, but
surprisingly it already works pretty well in practise (and the frame
rate is acceptable on test videos)

DHGR/HGR could be made runtime selectable by adding a header byte that
determines whether to set the DHGR soft switches before initiating
the decode loop.

While I'm in here, fix op_terminate to clear keyboard strobe before
waiting.

531a6ae345 Allow player to exit cleanly
- can't emit Terminate opcode in the middle of the bytestream
- pad the TCP stream to next 2k boundary when emitting terminate opcode,
  since the player will block until receiving this much data.

eebbccf711 Add some docstrings
Clean up naming in edit_distance

In video encoder, when we emit additional offsets as part of an opcode,
reinsert back into the priority heapq if the new edit distance is
nonzero, in case we get the chance to fix it up later in the frame.

Also make sure to zero out the diff_weights and content_deltas
so we don't consider the offset again as a side-effect of some other
opcode.

Instead of prioritizing side-effect offsets by their previous update
priority, prioritize by those with the lowest (error - edit) delta i.e.
not introducing too much error relative to their edit distance.
