we add drivers (display first) and link `pm-core`. HAL choice (rp235x-hal vs embassy) finalizes session** (`NoCs`) — mipidsi toggles CS mid-command and the ST7796 needs it continuous (see
with the first real driver. [[rust-st7796-cs-gotcha]]). Diagnosed off-bench with host tools in `rust/uisim`: `uisim` renders
pm-ui to PNG; `--bin panelsim` decodes mipidsi's real command/pixel stream into a PNG (proved the
protocol correct → bug was physical); `--bin initdump` dumps the init + CASET/RASET sequence.
**Next:** real metronome UI in `pm-ui` (iterate in the simulator/emulator, no bench), then inputs
(buttons GP15/14, joystick GP26/27, GT911 touch on GP8/9), audio (piezo GP13), WS2812 (GP12),
USB-MIDI — then link `pm-core` (the track codec + scheduler, already `no_std` and tested).
HAL stays `rp235x-hal` for now (embassy can come later if async buys us enough).
