feat(vmu-pro): Add BSP component for the 8BitMods VMU-Pro

[finger563]

Description

Adds a new board-support package, espp::VmuPro, for the 8BitMods VMU Pro — an ESP32-S3 based modern replacement for the Sega Dreamcast VMU. The BSP follows the same conventions as the other espp BSPs (singleton get(), espp::BaseComponent logging, Kconfig-tunable interrupt task) and wraps the board's on-board peripherals:

• Display: 1.5" 240x240 IPS LCD (ST7789-class) over SPI @ 80 MHz, with initialize_lcd() / initialize_display(), LVGL integration via espp::Display, LEDC-PWM backlight brightness control, rotation support, and the standard write_lcd_frame / write_lcd_lines / VRAM accessors. Uses swap_color_order = true to match the big-endian RGB565 format the official SDK exposes.
• Buttons: All 9 inputs (D-pad Up/Down/Left/Right, A, B, Mode, Power, Bottom) exposed as a Button enum through a single espp::Interrupt instance, with initialize_buttons(callback) for event-driven use and button_state(Button) for polling.
• Audio: Mono I2S speaker output (default 44.1 kHz, 16-bit, matching the official SDK's audio API) with play_audio(), runtime sample-rate get/set, amp enable/disable, and software volume/mute.
• uSD card: 4-bit SDMMC mounted at /sdcard (the SDK's mount point) via the standard SdCardConfig / initialize_sdcard() API.

A full example is included, using the per-example Gui class pattern from #663: the D-pad moves a cursor, A draws a circle at the cursor (with a synthesized beep), B clears (lower beep), Mode rotates the display, Bottom cycles backlight brightness, and Power toggles mute.

Docs are added under a new 8bitmods vendor section in the Dev Boards documentation, and the example is registered in the CI build matrix (esp32s3).

Warning

All GPIO assignments in this BSP are unverified placeholders. The VMU Pro's schematic is not public and the official vmupro-sdk is an app-level API that does not expose pin numbers. The peripheral set and behavior (display resolution/format, button list, audio model, sdcard mount point) are accurate per the official SDK, but every pin is marked // TODO: unverified in the header, with prominent warnings in the class docs, component README, example README, and the docs page. The same applies to invert_colors and the flash size/mode in the example's sdkconfig.defaults. For this reason the component is deliberately not added to upload_components.yml — it should not be published to the component registry until the pins are verified against real hardware or a schematic.

Motivation and Context

espp has BSPs for many small ESP32-S3 handheld/display boards, but nothing for the VMU Pro, which is a nice ESP32-S3 device with a display, buttons, speaker, and uSD card — a great fit for espp. This provides a starting point so that VMU Pro support only requires filling in the real pin map, rather than writing a BSP from scratch.

How has this been tested?

• Clean-built the example (idf.py build, ESP-IDF, target esp32s3) with no errors or warnings (-Werror enabled).
• Added the example to the CI build matrix in .github/workflows/build.yml so it is built automatically.
• Cross-checked the peripheral behavior (240x240 big-endian RGB565 display, 9-button set, 44.1 kHz 16-bit audio, /sdcard mount) against the official vmupro-sdk APIs.
• Not yet run on hardware — cannot be functional on-device until the placeholder GPIOs are replaced with the real pinout.

Screenshots (if appropriate, e.g. schematic, board, console logs, lab pictures):

N/A — not yet runnable on hardware due to placeholder pin assignments.

Pull request overview

Adds a new ESPP board-support package (BSP) component, espp::VmuPro, for the 8BitMods VMU Pro (ESP32-S3), including peripheral wrappers (display, buttons, audio, SDMMC), a full LVGL GUI-based example, documentation under a new 8bitmods vendor section, and CI build registration.

Changes:

• Introduces the new components/vmu-pro BSP component (headers, implementation, Kconfig, manifest) plus a GUI-driven example project.
• Extends documentation (Dev Boards vendor section + API reference integration via Doxygen input/example paths).
• Adds the example to the CI build matrix and updates the component publish workflow list.
