/* According to the NXP Datasheet for the PCF8574 section 8.2:
 *   "The master (microcontroller) sends the START condition and slave address
 *    setting the last bit of the address byte to logic 0 for the write mode.
 *    The PCF8574/74A acknowledges and the master then sends the data byte for
 *    P7 to P0 to the port register. As the clock line goes HIGH, the 8-bit
 *    data is presented on the port lines after it has been acknowledged by the
 *    PCF8574/74A. [...] The master can then send a STOP or ReSTART condition
 *    or continue sending data. The number of data bytes that can be sent 
 *    successively is not limited and the previous data is overwritten every
 *    time a data byte has been sent and acknowledged."
 * 
 * This driver takes advantage of this by sending multiple data bytes in succession
 * within a single I2C transmission.  With a fast clock rate of 400kHz, the time
 * between successive updates of the PCF8574 outputs will be at least 2.5us.  With
 * the default clock rate of 100kHz the time between updates will be at least 10us.
 * 
 * The LCD controller HD44780, according to its datasheet, needs nominally 37us
 * (up to 50us) to execute a command (i.e. write to gdram, reposition, etc.). Each
 * command is sent in a separate I2C transmission here.  The time taken to end a 
 * transmission and start another one is a stop bit, a start bit, 8 address bits,
 * an ack, 8 data bits and another ack; this is at least 20 bits, i.e. >50us
 * at 400kHz and >200us at 100kHz. Therefore, we don't need additional delay.
