/*
  Sketch to show scrolling of the graphics in sprites.
  Scrolling in this way moves the pixels in a defined rectangle
  within the Sprite. By default the whole sprite is scrolled.
  The gap left by scrolling is filled with a defined colour.

  Example for library:
  https://github.com/Bodmer/TFT_eSPI

  A Sprite is notionally an invisible graphics screen that is
  kept in the processors RAM. Graphics can be drawn into the
  Sprite just as it can be drawn directly to the screen. Once
  the Sprite is completed it can be plotted onto the screen in
  any position. If there is sufficient RAM then the Sprite can
  be the same size as the screen and used as a frame buffer.

  A 16 bit Sprite occupies (2 * width * height) bytes in RAM.

  An 8 bit Sprite occupies (width * height) bytes in RAM.
