ABL optimization
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
this optimization avoids to apply brightness two times .

NeoPixelBusLg has already applied global brightness at sPC. Due to internal working of the Lg bus, its sufficient to only post-apply scaling, and set the new (scaled) brightness for the next frame.
