/* 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.
*
* Similarly, the Enable must be set/reset for at least 450ns. This is
* well within the I2C clock cycle time of 2.5us at 400kHz. Data is clocked in
* to the HD44780 on the trailing edge of the Enable pin, so we set the Enable
* as we present the data, then in the next byte we reset Enable without changing
* the data.
